Opportunity Overview
The New Bremen Foundation Community Impact Fund supports local nonprofit organizations serving New Bremen, Ohio and surrounding communities. Eligible fields expressly include health and human services, as well as arts, civic engagement, education and environment.
Deadline and Funding
The current quarterly deadline is September 30, 2026. The Foundation’s current grant page and application form do not publish a closing clock time or time zone, so Atlas does not infer either. The current materials do not state a universal applicant request cap, total September-cycle pool, or mandatory match/cost-share requirement. For context only, the Foundation reports that its 2025 Community Fund awarded $65,550 across fourteen organizations, with published individual awards ranging from $250 to $34,000; those historical amounts are not a current-cycle cap.
Eligibility
The Foundation states that it serves local nonprofit charities and organizations classified by the IRS under Section 501(c)(3). The current application asks applicants to confirm that their federal 501(c)(3) status is current and that they serve residents of New Bremen or the surrounding community. Health and human services is an express field of interest.
Application Requirements
Applicants use the Foundation’s current Grant Application and identify the fund, organization, contact information, field of interest, proposed project or general operating request, and amount requested. The application requires a short proposal of no more than two pages describing the organization’s mission, purpose of the grant, rationale, benefit to New Bremen or surrounding communities, implementation plan, total organizational budget, administration costs, project costs, and whether the organization has previously received New Bremen Foundation funds. Supplemental attachments are optional and limited to three pages.
Submission Method
The Foundation instructs applicants to submit the completed Grant Inquiry materials electronically to Anna Rammel at anna.rammel@newbremenfoundation.org (also listed as anna.rammel@crown.com) with the subject line Grant Inquiry, or by mail to New Bremen Foundation, P.O. Box 97, New Bremen, OH 45869.
Atlas Fit Analysis
Atlas Opportunity Score: 68/100. This is a legitimate local health and human services funding path for qualifying nonprofits with a concrete New Bremen-area need, including healthcare access, patient support, community wellness and related charitable services.
N9+ Fit Score: 26/100, conditional. Technology is not an express funding priority in the current materials. Any remote clinical or diagnostic technology component should be considered only when it is genuinely necessary to an applicant-owned health project and the Foundation confirms the proposed cost is eligible. Initial outreach must not introduce the N9+.
Applicant Profile
Organizations with documented service to New Bremen or surrounding communities and a specific health or human services need are the strongest profiles. Historical Foundation awards show healthcare precedent, including support for hospital foundations, pediatric-access activities, Alzheimer’s services and other health-related community projects. Prior funding does not guarantee current eligibility or an award.
