The CNY85 Giving Project is Now Accepting Human Service, Health & Housing Entries

The Central New York Community Foundation is now accepting applications from human service, health and housing projects for a public voting competition - The CNY85 Giving Project. Over the course of the year, The CNY85 Giving Project will award grants to four deserving nonprofit organizations working to improve the quality of life in Central New York. The project that receives the most public votes at the end of each quarter will receive $8,500.

The Community Foundation is now accepting applications for projects that promote well-being through housing, health and human service work. Among the most pressing human needs are shelter, physical and mental wellbeing, and a general feeling of security. Eligible projects should address these needs, especially when working with vulnerable populations. Qualified public charities that serve Onondaga or Madison Counties are invited to enter The CNY Giving Project only once during the 2012 calendar year.
