Generation Impact Fairfield County Grant

Generation Impact, a philanthropic group of high school girls dedicated to community improvement, offers a $10,000 grant for 2025 to support impactful projects benefiting youth. The grant aims to fund a specific project or program rather than general operating expenses. Applicants are encouraged to provide detailed information about the project, its target audience, and the community issues being addressed. The grant application process begins on October 10, 2024, and applications are due by December 2, 2024, through the online Slideroom platform. Following an initial review, finalists will be selected during the “Big Review” event on January 26, 2025. Selected finalists will then participate in site visits on February 22-23 and March 1-2, 2025, where they will present their projects to Generation Impact members. The final step involves making presentations at the "Big Give" event on April 6, 2025, where members will vote to select the grant recipient. The $10,000 grant will be awarded during this event, and the grantee will be required to submit a final report upon project completion.
