THIS GRANT’S FOCUS: COVID-19, Food Access, Nutrition, Child Health, Child Welfare, New Jersey
Deadline: Ongoing
“In response to the public health and economic crisis created by the Novel Coronavirus, Reinvestment Fund is using NJCNF resources to now offer COVID–19 Emergency Meal Grants. Grants will be available to support organizations that are addressing rising food insecurity among children and families in New Jersey.
NJCNF is offering flexible and streamlined capital grant awards to help current Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) and Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) sponsors, sites, and vendors continue meal service in response to COVID-19 disruptions. These awards are intended to meet the immediate capital and operational needs of organizations as they work to respond to the evolving crisis, as well as enable organizations to strategically plan for evolving needs and expansion possibilities over the coming months.
Grants can include:
- Up to $10,000 for program operations and materials or supplies (i.e. packaging containers, shelf-stable food, health/safety sanitation, staffing, etc.)
- Up to $25,000 where specific larger equipment purchases are needed, (i.e. vehicle for mobile delivery, refrigeration or heating equipment).
NJCNF will prioritize awards based on the following:
- Programs serving rural areas
- Programs in or serving southern NJ counties
- Programs serving children not currently being served by their School Districts
- Programs serving higher numbers of children. “
