CSF grants are awarded on a bi-annual basis in the Spring and Fall, with dates for submissions (usually in Apr/May and Oct/Nov) announced by the Board here and on our social media pages, as well as via our mailing list and other community outlets. This year, 2026, we are conducting only the Fall 2026 Grant Cycle.
The written application is followed by an interview with each applicant whose project is considered for funding. Award decisions are made following interviews.
