Foundations increases award amounts for Partnership in Youth Services grant cycle

Foundations Community Partnership (FCP) is now accepting applications for its Partnership in Youth Services (PYS) fall grant cycle.

Eligible nonprofits can apply for up to $4,500 by Aug. 15. Preference is given to nonprofits applying to FCP for the first time and those that have not applied in the past five years.

“We are pleased to be in the position to increase the award for this grant from $3,000 to up to $4,500,” said Abigail Halloran, chair of FCP’s Board of Directors. “This grant cycle continues our tradition of recognizing and supporting nonprofits that are dedicated to helping solve community problems, and enhancing the quality of life for children, young adults, and families in Bucks County,”

Annually, the PYS grant cycle offers $72,000 in support of innovative programs and services. Last spring, FCP awarded PYS grants to six nonprofits that were all first-time applicants to the Doylestown-based grant maker. Collectively, these organizations helped address the behavioral health and human service needs of 3,270 Bucks County residents.
