Grants

The Falmouth Walk accepts funding proposals from local non-profit organizations, who serve the Falmouth community.
Applicants must be local non-profit organizations that are tax-exempt under the provisions of the IRS code, Section 501(c)(3). Please include a copy of your tax-exempt IRS 501(c)(3) letter with your application.

Previous grant recipients are eligible to apply. Your application should include a description of how your last award(s), those before 2026, was utilized.

Requests for specific projects, general support and capital improvements are considered.

The average grant is $4,000.

You are expected to spend the grant as it was proposed in your application. If you want to redirect funds or postpone the use of the funds, you must first consult the Falmouth Walk permission.

We require a financial summary/report, see question below, and, if appropriate, a project budget. We are looking for a concise summary of your organization’s overall finances and a budget for your proposed project.

Include your most recent annual financial report and latest annual budget. If the budget is detailed, an executive summary is preferred. We simply need enough information to assess monetary need and fiscal responsibility.

No. We do not want these documents.

We are looking for the details of your proposed project costs and income, if any. The project budget you provide us can be as simple as a paragraph, as long as you give us all the pertinent information, or it could be a standard income/expense report for the project.

Review the checklist we provided to make sure you’ve included all the required components.

We do not consider incomplete applications.

We accept applications until 11:59 PM on November 14, 2025. We will not consider late applications.

Funding decisions are made by March 1st, however, grant amounts are not finalized until September 2026 with checks distributed in October 2026.
