General grants from the Community Foundation of Greater Rochester support nonprofit programs and projects in Rochester, Rochester Hills, and Oakland Township. Past recipients include green spaces and community outreach programs. Nonprofits planning a park or playground project in these communities should contact staff first.

Could a playground win this?

Possible fit Medium confidence

Playgrounds are not named, but the foundation funds local nonprofit projects and lists green spaces among its grant recipients. A grant could pay for a piece of a playground, such as shade, benches or one play feature, alongside other funding.

Our grant recipients include green spaces, non-profit organizations, community outreach programs, and more.

Before applying for a grant, prospective grantees are encouraged to reach out to Foundation staff to determine if funding is available for their program or project.
