Request for Proposals: Washington Youth Development Nonprofit Relief Fund


Deadline: 06-Oct-20

The Washington State Department of Commerce (Commerce) is partnering with School’s Out Washington (SOWA) to implement a grant award process through the Washington Youth Development Nonprofit Relief Fund (the Relief Fund).

The COVID-19 outbreak, extended school closures, and social distancing have deepened inequities and hardships for children and youth across Washington. Youth development programs/organizations have quickly adapted their services to provide responsive supports for youth and families to whom they are deeply connected—including emergency childcare, social-emotional supports, academic mentoring, virtual programming, and basic needs supports.

The Relief Fund addresses the financial and programmatic challenges that have come with COVID-19, acknowledging that lost revenue combined with increased expenses to adhere to COVID-19 safety measures, leave many organizations at risk of closing programs or sites.

Grants will be awarded to youth development programs/organizations in all areas of the state, with emphasis on those that serve youth populations most impacted by COVID-19 and furthest from educational justice.

Priority Areas

Youth served in priority populations furthest from educational justice
Programs’/organizations’ staff and leadership
Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic
Funding Information

Grant sizes will range from $10,000 to $50,000. There will be no grants smaller than $10,000 and no grants larger than $50,000.
