Apply for a Grant
We seek to fund organizations that have a mission or programmatic focus of at-risk children and/or education of children. DSVP grants are typically multi-year and include hands-on involvement by individual partners (who have a range of talents and skills to offer nonprofit organizations). How organizations will use Partner skills is an important element in the grant review process.
Currently the funding round is closed.
DSVP's funding round begins with an information session for interested nonprofits followed by a convening of our Investment committee. Once the proposals are recieved the Investment Committee will review and notify the finalist to schedule site visits. (See Timeline Below)
