Roseau Area Community Fund: 2026 Applicant Grants
Applications are open October 19 through November 19, 2026. The Northwest Minnesota Foundation lists the Roseau Area Community Fund as an open charitable grant competition. The fund supports charitable, educational and public-purpose programs, services and projects that improve quality of life for Roseau-area residents and visitors. This is financial assistance for applicant-led public-benefit projects, not a procurement contract.
Funding Available
The official application specifies a minimum requested grant amount of $500. This is a minimum request, not a guaranteed award. No maximum grant amount or typical individual award range has been published in the current online application. No overall fund pool is given for this round, and an organization should not substitute an overall pool for its own application. The controlling form does not expressly state a matching percentage, reimbursement requirement or funding duration. Applicants should confirm those details with the funder.
Who May Apply
The official application asks the applicant organization for its legal name, address, federal tax ID and IRS tax-exempt status, allowing public, 501(c)(3), or other status to be disclosed. The funder will assess eligibility under its own charitable-funding rules. Projects must benefit the Roseau-area community or, for the Education Fund, the Roseau Public School district. Applicants identify all benefited northwest Minnesota counties or Tribal Nations in the application. Ineligible applicant types are not fully enumerated on the public form, so organizations with a nonstandard tax status should confirm eligibility before submission.
Submission and Requirements
Choose Roseau Area Community Fund in the single official form. Provide organization and primary contact information, federal tax ID, a project title and dates, total project cost, requested grant amount, other funding secured or sought, and a proposed project budget attachment. The form asks for a project summary, community needs and proposed activities, collaborators and financial commitments, benefited counties or Tribal Nations, and applicant signature. Deadline: November 19, 2026; a specific closing time and time zone are not stated on the official application. Submit via the official 2026 Roseau community and education grant application and retain its confirmation. Funding restrictions and match details not specified in the public form should be verified directly with the funder.
