WYCF Allowing Current Grantees to Utilize Funds for General Operations

In response to the current COVID-19 health crisis, the Wyoming Community Foundation has announced changes to their grant guidelines, as all current grantees will now be able to utilize WYCF grants for general operating support if they are unable to carry out their original grant application. The change of funds can be made without alerting the organization, although changes should be addressed in each grantee’s final report.

In addition to these changes, the Wyoming Community Foundation has created a statewide COVID-19 Response and Recovery Fund to respond to immediate needs arising from the pandemic. The Foundation continues to raise new money for this fund to preserve regular grant-making funds. The COVID-19 Response and Recovery grants will not replace regular grant cycles, which will run normally with deadlines in June and December.
