Opportunity Summary
The Oliver County Community Foundation, a component fund of the North Dakota Community Foundation, is accepting applications for its Fall 2026 grant round. The Fall round has $25,000 available and the application deadline is October 12, 2026. The public program page does not state an exact clock time, time zone, solicitation number, or per-applicant maximum.
Eligibility
Eligible applicants include organizations recognized by the IRS as 501(c)(3) nonprofit tax-exempt organizations and government agencies. Organizations that need a fiscal sponsor may contact the North Dakota Community Foundation. Projects must serve Oliver County. The committee emphasizes applicants with limited access to other funding and gives higher priority to projects or programs serving a greater number of county residents. Requests substantially supported by government or that should be paid with tax revenue, national organizations, and routine operating or day-to-day expenses are lower priority. Multi-year pledges and grants to individuals are not funded.
Healthcare and N9+ Fit
The fund expressly identifies special needs in a nursing home or hospital, ambulance needs, school technology needs, and other community quality-of-life projects as examples of appropriate requests. Atlas assigns an N9+ Fit Score of 78/100. A defensible applicant-led project could use the Nonagon N9+ remote physical examination platform to expand guided physical examinations, vitals capture, and telehealth-enabled clinical encounters at a rural clinic or school-based health setting in Oliver County. Allowability should be confirmed for the specific project budget rather than assumed.
Funding and Deadline
The Fall 2026 round has $25,000 available. Applications are due October 12, 2026. No exact deadline time or time zone is published, and no per-applicant maximum is stated. Approved requests may be funded in full or in part at the committee’s discretion.
Application Requirements
Applicants must review the eligibility rules, register in the NDCF Grants Portal using organization information, EIN, executive-officer information, and a user account, then complete and submit the online application. After submission, the Oliver County Community Foundation committee will call the applicant to present the project and share details.
Direct Vendor Review
Dr. Miltie, LLC is not being advanced as a direct applicant because the published rules limit applicants to qualifying nonprofits and government agencies serving Oliver County. The appropriate structure is an eligible local applicant, with Dr. Miltie potentially serving as a technology vendor if the proposed equipment is accepted as an eligible project cost.
Atlas Next Step
Confirm the applicant’s Oliver County service footprint, define a specific community-health or school-health project, verify proposed N9+ equipment and platform costs with the fund if included, and submit through the NDCF Grants Portal by October 12, 2026.
