The FACES program is designed to find and fund the smaller, often overlooked projects in our neighborhoods - and our grants are limited to nonprofit organizations with operating budgets of $500,000 or less in Sussex County, DE or $750,000 or less in Montgomery County, MD. Nonprofit organizations can apply for a grant award of $2,500, $5,000, or $10,000. The total award fund for each county is $100,000.

FACES grants support grassroots nonprofit organizations who are making distinct impact on the ground level in our communities. FACES utilizes a volunteer advisory board composed of community leaders who evaluate grant applications and recommend funding choices. The FACES advisory board provides a unique insight into community needs and priorities and allows us to support projects that are most important to the community.
