Interesting opportunity for local non-profits. This program was new to me, but worth remembering. So I wanted to post it as a way to archive it. And if WHNA becomes a non-profit someday we might want to look into this for future activities and programs. But I know many of us are also involved in various other city groups and there may be folks already eligible for this.

"Non-profit organizations in Somerville are invited to apply for grants from the Tufts Neighborhood Service Fund (TNSF). The TNSF collects donations from faculty and staff at Tufts University throughout the year and then awards small grants to community-based, charitable organizations that serve Tufts’ host communities. All of the TNSF funds go to nonprofit organizations. Applicants must also have Tufts volunteers actively working with their organizations. In this way, TNSF supports not only community organizations but also the work of the many Tufts students, staff, faculty, and alumni who volunteer with them. Last year, 13 programs and projects in Somerville were granted awards. Interested organizations should contact the Government and Community Relations office at Tufts University at (617) 627-3780 or obtain an application at http://go.tufts.edu/TNSF. Individual grants will be made in amounts ranging from $250 to $2,000. Applications are due by Friday, March 2, and awards will be announced before April."
