The LBF’s Community Partnership Panels work to identify areas of need for LBF funding. The CPPs foster collaboration, respond to arising community needs, and encourage local involvement in the designation of grant funds. A subcommittee of the Grants Committee makes recommendations that go to the Board for final approval.
Eligible nonprofits or current LBF grantees may apply for CPP funding for new services or expansion of an existing service.
CPP grant applications are accepted on a flexible, rolling period.
