About Community Development Grants for Nonprofits

Community development grants fund nonprofit initiatives that strengthen neighborhoods, expand social services, improve infrastructure, and build economic opportunity in underserved areas. The 7,421 active grants in this category are led by the Administration for Community Living, alongside the Department of Commerce and Department of Housing and Urban Development, supporting everything from affordable housing projects to workforce development and community center operations.

Most of these grants operate on a competitive basis, with typical awards ranging from $250,000 to $650,000. About one-third require cost-sharing commitments. Filtering by support type—particularly "Capacity Building" or "Program"—can help identify grants aligned with your nonprofit's current stage and operational focus.
