How to Apply

501(c)(3) nonprofits providing services in Washtenaw County, Michigan are eligible to apply for grants from the AAACF.

To apply for a grant, all organizations must register for access via the Nonprofit Portal. 

After receiving login credentials, all organizations must contact the appropriate AAACF Community Investment Team member, as specified on the grants main page. This will be done either with a phone call, webinar video, or information session.

The application and all additional resources are accessed through the Nonprofit Portal.  

Please note that each grant cycle is open for approximately 5 weeks.

Organizations may submit one unique application per grant program. For example, an organization may request support from the Youth Council for a project, and submit a separate application to the Bach Fund, as long as it is for a different project. 

AAACF does not make out-of-cycle grants.

There are variations between each grant program, but all applicants will be contacted no later than eight weeks after the grant deadline. 

Fill out the Nonprofit Portal Registration Form.
