Adrian, MI – The Michigan Department of Labor and Economic Opportunity has announced that the $15 million MI Impact Grant application is now open.

The grant program, which is designed to support the critical work of nonprofits who provide meaningful and sustained impact in the communities they serve, will prioritize partnerships with larger nonprofits that share the state’s commitment to providing services that help lift Michigan residents out of poverty and above the Alice threshold.

Large nonprofits could receive one-time grant funds between $1 to $2 million for the time period of August 24th of this year to August 24th, 2025, to create programming or expand current programming that supports disproportionately impacted communities in their recovery from the pandemic.

To be eligible, organizations must be a Michigan-based, 501(c)(3) or 501(c)(19) nonprofit or a fiscally sponsored project by a 501(c)(3) or 501(c)(19).

The funding is supported through the American Rescue Plan Act, Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds.

Nonprofits must submit the application by noon on June 23rd.
