Atlas Analysis
Atlas Opportunity Score 0 pending complete authoritative verification. The opportunity is legitimate and Minnesota-owned, with awards of $1,000-$8,000 and a September 30, 2026 deadline, but the controlling public pages do not publish a deadline time zone or explicitly state whether a mandatory match/cost-share applies, and the authenticated application does not expose all current fields/uploads publicly. N9+ Fit 0/100. QC Healthcare Fit 0/100. Do not create applicant-specific CRM work, package production, or ORIGINAL outreach until the missing controls are verified.
Opportunity Overview
Central Minnesota Community Foundation’s Julianne Williams Fund supports projects benefiting girls and young women in the St. Cloud metro within a 30-mile radius, with an emphasis on self-esteem, safety, confidence, empowerment through physical and especially outdoor activities, and youth activities that enhance mutual respect between girls and boys.
Funding and Deadline
Awards range from $1,000 to $8,000. The 2026 application window opened August 1, 2026 and closes September 30, 2026. CMCF states that applications must be submitted online by midnight on the deadline, but the controlling public pages do not publish a time zone.
Eligibility and Allowable Uses
Eligible applicants are 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations, schools, and government entities serving within 30 miles of St. Cloud. CMCF will consider capital projects, new or expanded programs/projects, and other strategic investments with lasting impact.
Verification Hold
Atlas has not advanced this opportunity to applicant-specific CRM work or ORIGINAL outreach because the public sources do not state an exact deadline time zone, do not explicitly state whether a mandatory match or cost share applies, and do not expose the complete live application fields and uploads. These controls must be confirmed before action.
