THE GRAND HAVEN AREA COMMUNITY FOUNDATION IS GOVERNED BY A VOLUNTEER BOARD OF TRUSTEES. OUR MISSION: WE ENHANCE THE QUALITY OF LIFE FOR ALL BY WORKING TOGETHER TO COLLECTIVELY ADDRESS CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES THROUGHOUT WEST MICHIGAN. OUR VISION: WE ADVANCE THE WELL BEING OF OUR COMMUNITIES BY CREATING THE VERY BEST PLACES TO LIVE, LEARN, WORK, GIVE AND ENGAGE. WE STRIVE FOR COMMUNITY IMPROVEMENT THROUGH STRATEGIC GRANTMAKING IN PRIORITY AREAS OF DIVERSITY & INCLUSION, EDUCATION, ECONOMIC & COMMUNITY BETTERMENT, HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES, ARTS & CULTURE AND THE ENVIRONMENT, WITHOUT DISCRIMINATION AS TO RACE, COLOR OR CREED.
THE FOUNDATION RECEIVES GIFTS, BEQUESTS, AND DONATIONS TO BE HELD IN TRUST AND ADMINISTERED EXCLUSIVELY FOR CHARITABLE PURPOSES, PRIMARILY IN AND FOR, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE BENEFIT OF THE PEOPLE OF OTTAWA COUNTY AND THE WESTERN MICHIGAN AREA.
FOR THE COMPETITIVE GRANT PROGRAM, OUR PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS FOCUS ON THE FOLLOWING PRIORITY AREAS: ARTS & CULTURE, DIVERSITY & INCLUSION, ENVIRONMENT, EDUCATION, ECONOMIC & COMMUNITY BETTERMENT, HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES. ALL ORGANIZATIONS STATE IN WRITING HOW THEY WILL USE THE FUNDS AWARDED. THEY ARE ALSO REQUIRED TO SUBMIT AN EVALUATION REPORT ON HOW THE FUNDS WERE USED. THE GRANTS COMMITTEE MAKES RECOMMENDATIONS TO THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES AND THE BOARD VOTES ON THE GRANTS FOR APPROVAL OR DENIAL AT THEIR QUARTERLY MEETINGS. FOR ALL OTHER GRANT AWARDS, A GRANT RECOMMENDATION FORM IS SUBMITTED BY THE APPROPRIATE FUND REPRESENTATIVE. COMMUNITY FOUNDATION STAFF FOLLOW DUE DILIGENCE PROTOCOL IN CONFIRMING THE CHARITABLE STATUS OF THE GRANTEE ORGANIZATION. THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES REVIEWS AND APPROVES THESE GRANTS AS PART OF THEIR QUARTERLY MEETINGS. THE GRANT CHECK IS ISSUED DIRECTLY TO THE NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION WITH A COVER LETTER IDENTIFYING THE FUND FROM WHICH THE GRANT IS AWARDED AND THE SPECIFIC PURPOSE OF THE GRANT.
