THE SCRIVEN FOUNDATION AND NYCON ANNOUNCE 2022 CAPACITY BUILDING "MINI GRANTS" AWARDS FOR OTSEGO COUNTY NONPROFITS
Oneonta, NY – May 18, 2022 – The New York Council of Nonprofits (NYCON) is pleased to announce the 2022 Otsego County Mini-Grant Program awards for Otsego County nonprofits and their capacity building projects. This program is intended to measurably improve the governance and management operations of qualifying Otsego County 501(c)3 charitable nonprofits. Launched in 2004, this program is made possible with underwriting from The Scriven Foundation.
Faced with the lingering impact of the pandemic on Otsego County nonprofit organizations and the communities they serve and support, the Otsego County Mini-Grant Program is an important resource in sustaining and strengthening the nonprofit community. "We have supported this program for 19 years because we want to ensure that our local nonprofits have access to high-quality advice and professional development," said Jane Forbes Clark, President of The Scriven Foundation. "This effort is important because the awardees' programs and services touch every aspect of our communities, and we want them to be able to do their absolute best in achieving their individual missions."
