YouthBridge Community Foundation of Greater St. Louis has developed this grant program to assist nonprofits who are looking to, or have already found, ways to partner or merge with other nonprofits. 

Guidelines

The successful proposals could be for any type of partnership such as: back-office support services all the way to a full merger and/or support for coordination efforts after a merger. These funds can also be used to provide consultation between agencies who have ideas but are in the early start up or thought process for partnerships. The objective of the grant is to assist nonprofit agencies to build and strengthen their capacity and create organizational efficiencies through shared work with another nonprofit. This grant is not intended to fund program collaborations.
