The Appalachian Regional Commission Launches READY Community Foundations


In many areas of Appalachia, community foundations are the only philanthropic option for nonprofits, local government entities and other community groups. READY Community Foundations provides no-cost training to help these organizations strengthen operations, programming and fundraising. Following completion of the training program, participants will be eligible to apply for up to $25,000 in funding (no-match required) to implement internal capacity-building projects and bolster their organizations as critical local funding sources.

Before you apply for READY Community Foundations, please be sure you can meet the following requirements:

  • Two participants from your organization, one of which must be the executive director or highest-ranking staff member.

  • Ability to commit up to 30 hours for virtual training.

  • Availability during the six-week timeframe of your desired course. See options here.
