The Leo L. Livingston Fund grant committee is seeking applications to help Taylor nonprofits once again this year.
The Community Foundation of the Brazos Valley administers a charitable endowment fund that was created in memory of Leo Livingston by his wife Doris Livingston and benefits nonprofit organizations in the Taylor community.
The foundation is accepting applications from 501(c) (3) organizations for the local grant.
“A local Grants Review Committee comprised of Taylor residents and business leaders is accepting applications from nonprofit organizations for grants up to $10,000 for programs that support the Livingston’s goals of continually improving the quality of life in Taylor, Texas,” the application reads.
The deadline for applications is Friday, March 8, and recipients will be notified by Friday, April 12, at the latest.
The committee will consider grants to support established programs, launch new programs and fund unique capital needs that will increase an organization’s capacity.
Grants will not be made to underwrite or sponsor fundraising events or public relation events. The grants can be used to provide salary support.
Applications should be mailed to Leo Livingston Grant Review Committee at Hejl & Schroeder, 311 Talbot Street, Taylor, Tx 76574.
They can also be emailed to president@ cfbv.org.
Application forms are available at the Taylor Press office, 211 W. Third Street.
