Capacity Building Grant Program

​The CIC Capacity Building Grant Program was created to provide “seed money” grants for State Fund Members to enhance or expand their capacity to raise money to support their programs and member colleges. The grants are intended to provide start-up funding for new fundraising programs, particularly those which are targeted at attracting new donors and new financial support, or focus on other ways to enhance fundraising capacity for the future.

 

 Eligibility

 
​Only CIC State Fund Members are eligible to apply for Capacity-Building Grant funding. If you work for a private college or university, please contact the State Fund Member in your state.
