Opportunity Overview
The Charlevoix County Community Foundation (C3F) 2026 Geographic Enrichment Grant Cycle supports community needs on Beaver Island and in Boyne City, Charlevoix, and East Jordan. C3F identifies health and wellness, education, human services, civic improvement, community development, recreation, and other future community needs as fundable areas.
Deadline and Application Process
The application deadline is October 1, 2026 at 11:59 PM. The controlling public page reviewed by Atlas does not state a time zone for the 11:59 PM deadline. All requests must begin with a conversation with C3F staff. If the request is a fit, the applicant receives an access code for the online grant application. Ashley Cousens is the listed Geographic Enrichment contact.
Eligibility and Geography
Eligible applicants include 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations, educational institutions from preschool through college, and units of government serving Charlevoix County residents. Organizations must be current with prior grant follow-ups and in good standing with the IRS. Proposed programs or projects must benefit Charlevoix County residents and address a future need.
Funding and Restrictions
C3F’s public page does not publish a fixed current-cycle award ceiling or total available pool. It identifies political campaigns, sectarian projects, loan payments or deficit spending, services normally supported by tax dollars, annual fundraisers, and grants to individuals as categories it usually does not fund. No mandatory match percentage or explicit telehealth/vendor procurement rule is stated on the controlling page reviewed by Atlas.
Atlas Strategic Analysis
Atlas Opportunity Score: 92/100.
N9+ Fit Score: 86/100, conditional applicant-led. Health and wellness projects are expressly within C3F’s funding scope, and recent Geographic Enrichment awards demonstrate support for operational and capital needs. A Nonagon N9+ remote physical examination project can be a legitimate concept when it directly addresses a Charlevoix County access need, but device/platform and vendor-cost allowability must be confirmed with C3F before being represented as fundable. Dr. Miltie, LLC is not a listed prime-applicant type.
Verification Notes
No solicitation number, fixed award maximum, mandatory match, or detailed vendor/procurement rule is published on the controlling page. Applicant-specific tax, governance, financial, program, staffing, and other required documentation must be supplied by the applicant and will not be fabricated.
