Opportunity Summary
The Flasher Area Community Foundation, a component fund of the North Dakota Community Foundation, is accepting applications for its Fall 2026 grant round. The Fall round has $73,500 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 IRS 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations and government agencies serving southern Morton County, including Flasher, St. Anthony, Huff, Fort Rice, or organizations providing service to those communities. Fiscal sponsorship may be available through NDCF. The committee emphasizes applicants with limited access to other funding and gives higher priority to projects serving more area residents. Routine operating expenses, national organizations, and projects that should be substantially tax-supported are lower priority. Grants to individuals and multi-year pledges are not funded.
Healthcare, School, and N9+ Fit
The fund expressly identifies school technology needs, special needs in a nursing home or hospital, and ambulance and fire needs as suitable grant ideas. Atlas assigns an N9+ Fit Score of 68/100. A defensible applicant-led project could use the Nonagon N9+ remote physical examination platform for guided examinations, vitals, and telehealth-enabled clinical encounters in a rural school-health, clinic, or EMS-supported setting. Allowability of the specific equipment and platform costs should be confirmed with the fund before submission.
Funding and Deadline
The Fall 2026 round has $73,500 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 partially.
Application Requirements
Applicants should review the published eligibility criteria, register in the NDCF Grant Portal using organization information, EIN, executive officer information, and an individual user account, then complete all required online questions and submit the form. The public materials do not enumerate a grant-specific mandatory attachment list. Saving is not the same as submitting; the portal sends an email confirmation after successful submission.
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 the eligible geography. The appropriate structure is an eligible local applicant, with Dr. Miltie potentially serving as technology vendor if the proposed equipment and platform costs are accepted.
Atlas Next Step
Confirm the applicant’s southern Morton County service footprint, define a specific rural-health or school-health project, verify proposed N9+ costs with NDCF if included, and submit through the NDCF Grant Portal by October 12, 2026.
