Wallace Grants Support Cross-Sector Partnerships that Serve Marginalized Youth

Time and time again, we see the advantages of cross-sector collaboration in tackling systemic issues. To that end, the Wallace Foundation, a philanthropic initiative fostering equity, learning, and enrichment opportunities for young people and communities through the arts, is inviting expressions of interest regarding projects that support young people in overcoming structural issues such as poverty and homelessness. Submissions must come from existing partnerships between public or private community partners (neighborhood, town, city, or county) within the U.S. and its territories, with a focus on learning and development experiences for youth outside of the classroom. A select number of applicants will be invited to submit full proposals in January 2023, with 20–30 grants awarded in the range of $200,000 for one year. To submit an expression of interest, visit the foundation’s online hub and submit your application by 5 p.m. EST on Friday, November 4.
