Where
Nebraska Panhandle valley served by OTCF

The Oregon Trail Community Foundation makes grants for community projects in its valley in western Nebraska. Recent awards include a city splash pad, a community building annex and equipment for local groups. Nonprofits, and groups working with a nonprofit fiscal agent, should apply.

Could a playground win this?

Strong fit Medium confidence

The foundation recently funded a city splash pad and a community building annex, so a permanent play space project looks like a good fit. Capital campaigns are not funded, so ask for a specific item such as equipment, shade or surfacing rather than general campaign support.
