The Prosperity Foundation - Call for SEC Grant Applications - Apply by Aug. 31st
The Prosperity Foundation is currently accepting applications from nonprofit organizations in the city of New Haven that offer the following:
- Reentry/reintegration programs that support formerly incarcerated individuals and their families
- Youth education, recreation, and arts programs that help promote physical and mental health wellness and empower young people in the future workforce
Organizations must be registered with the IRS as a 501c3 incorporation or have a fiscal sponsor. Funds must be used for actual programs and should not be used for organization events.
By completing this application, your organization acknowledges that funds made available from this grant come directly from the reinvestment of Connecticut state cannabis revenues back into communities negatively impacted by the War on Drugs. The source of funding for all Social Equity Council programs and activities is sales tax revenue from CT’s Adult-Use Cannabis Industry, which is currently not federally legal. Applicants should check with their legal counsel, funders, and/or governing body to determine eligibility to apply for and receive these funds.

**Applications are due by August 31, 2023.**
