Application for Grant

Type of Organization *
Individuals will not be considered for the grant. Please ensure you select the correct type of organization to ensure the correct committee reviews your submission.

In an effort to better serve our members we are requiring community organization applicants to register (claim) and onboard (add contact information, accept referrals) their program through Superior Community Aids and Resources (CARES), our online social services resources directory. Organizations must be signed up for Superior CARES before grants are awarded. Organizations will not be considered for a grant unless they are registered with Superior CARES.

Please note: Direct providers of community-based services such as food, shelter, transportation etc. are required to register. This requirement does not apply to schools and Head Start programs.

For additional information on Superior CARES and to register your organization, please download the Superior CARES Quick Reference Guide (PDF).
