Opportunity Summary
The Milnor Community Foundation, affiliated with the North Dakota Community Foundation, conducts two grant rounds each year. The fall application deadline is October 1, 2026. The fund supports nonprofit and government projects serving the community of Milnor and the Milnor School District. The controlling public page does not publish a 2026 fall pool total, per-applicant maximum, solicitation number, exact deadline clock time, or time zone.
Eligibility
NDCF states that its Community Endowment Fund Program is open to eligible nonprofit organizations and government agencies, and the Milnor fund requires that projects serve the community of Milnor and the Milnor School District. The Milnor School District is a realistic government applicant with repeated prior awards from this fund, including school-based mental health grants.
Healthcare and N9+ Fit
Atlas assigns an N9+ Fit Score of 72/100. The strongest fit is an applicant-led school-health or school-based behavioral-health access project. Milnor School District has repeatedly received foundation support for school-based mental health, including $15,500 in Fall 2025, $15,000 in Fall 2024, and $13,640 in Fall 2023. Any N9+ hardware, software/platform, installation, shipping, training, or implementation costs should be confirmed as allowable before application.
Funding and Deadline
Applications are due October 1, 2026 for the fall round. The controlling public page does not publish the exact cutoff time or time zone. It also does not state a 2026 fall pool size or formal request cap. Recent Milnor awards demonstrate meaningful project awards, but historical awards are not a guarantee of current-year funding levels.
Application Requirements
Applicants must submit a completed application containing all information requested. Applicants register in the NDCF Grants Portal using the organization name, EIN, executive officer name, and user credentials, then select and complete the Milnor Community Foundation application. Late applications are not considered for the current round. The public Milnor page does not enumerate a grant-specific mandatory attachment list.
Review Factors
The committee considers organizational management and integrity, local involvement and support, the number of people served, and the impact of the grant on project success. Day-to-day operating requests are lower priority, and religious-organization requests must be non-denominational and serve the broader community.
Direct Vendor Review
Dr. Miltie, LLC / QC Healthcare is not being advanced as a direct applicant. The appropriate structure is an eligible local nonprofit or government applicant, with Dr. Miltie potentially serving as a technology vendor or implementation partner if the proposed costs are accepted by the fund.
Atlas Next Step
For Milnor School District, define a specific school-health or school-based behavioral-health access project, confirm proposed N9+ cost allowability and the exact October 1 cutoff time/time zone with NDCF, and submit through the NDCF Grants Portal before the verified deadline.
