Community Support Initiative (LOI process)

In place of the traditional Community Needs Grant cycle, SACF uses a Letter of Inquiry (LOI) process reviewed on a rolling basis to understand emerging nonprofit needs and respond flexibly throughout 2026. Not a competitive application; submission does not guarantee funding but may lead to follow-up conversations or funding invitations. Open to Lackawanna County 501(c)(3) nonprofits experiencing significant organizational changes, financial challenges, or funding reductions.
