Sadie Jones Fund Public Health and Safety Projects Fall 2026
The Emporia Community Foundation is accepting fall 2026 applications to the Sadie Jones Fund for projects serving children in Lyon and Chase counties, Kansas. The Fund’s main focus is children’s vision and hearing needs, and it may also support resources related to public health and safety matters affecting children.
Deadline: October 1, 2026 at 5:00 p.m. The controlling application does not state a time zone.
Geography and purpose: Projects must serve children in Lyon and/or Chase counties. Eligible project concepts should address vision, hearing, public health or safety needs affecting children.
Application requirements: Use the ECF cover sheet as page one and do not include a cover letter. The proposal requires a project narrative of no more than four pages, one-inch margins, single-spaced, 12-point font; a one-page project budget; the organization’s current budget; a list of officers and board members; and the most recent annual report and financial statement. The narrative must address need, mission alignment, number served, available resources and partners, likelihood of success, measurement and sustainability, timeline, and other funding sources approached.
Submission: Submit one complete proposal by email to emporiacf@emporiacf.org or deliver it to Emporia Community Foundation, 527 Commercial Street, Suite B, Emporia, KS 66801.
Funding: Current controlling materials do not publish a project award ceiling or total fall 2026 funding pool. The $3,000 Sadie Jones Fund request shown in the sample project budget is explicitly illustrative and is not treated by Atlas as a funding cap.
N9+ Fit Score: 10/100 conditional. N9+ should not be force-fit into this opportunity. A potential fit exists only where an eligible local child-health project has a truthful need for remote physical examination, guided exams, vitals or telehealth-enabled clinical encounters and the Foundation confirms the proposed expense is allowable.
Direct-vendor review: Dr. Miltie is not being advanced as a direct applicant under the published structure.
Controlling sources: Emporia Community Foundation Available Grants and Sadie Jones Fund Grant Application.
