The Minot Area Community Foundation (MACF) announced it is accepting applications for two grant programs that support youth development across North Dakota: the NWND Fund for Girls Grants and the Chevron 4-H Club & FFA Chapter Grants.
The NWND Fund for Girls Grants support programs that help girls build character, confidence, leadership, life skills, and strong values. Eligible nonprofits, schools, and charitable organizations serving girls and young women in northwest North Dakota are encouraged to apply.
In 2025, the grant program awarded more than $42,000 to organizations making a difference in the lives of girls throughout the region. Eligible programs must serve girls in one or more of the following counties: Bottineau, Burke, Divide, McHenry, McKenzie, McLean, Mountrail, Pierce, Renville, Rolette, Sheridan, Ward, Wells, and Williams. Grant applications are due Sept. 4.
The Chevron 4-H Club & FFA Chapter Grants provide up to 20 grants of $500 to North Dakota 4-H clubs and FFA chapters. Grant funding may be used for community service projects or expenses associated with participation in the 2027 North Dakota State Fair. The program is supported by Chevron. Applications are due Nov. 30.
Grant applications and eligibility information for both programs are available online or by calling MACF at 852-0646.
