Who can apply
“Blue & You Foundation mini grants of $1,000 – $5,000 support 501c3 nonprofit organizations, government entities, churches, and schools, colleges and universities applying for health initiatives.”
Its FAQ lists eligible organizations as “Any 501(c)(3) public charity,” public schools and colleges, government agencies, and religious organizations (“but the program cannot support theological functions or religious purposes”), and they must be Arkansas-based. Its School Health Initiatives category reads “at a public university, college or school,” so a nonprofit private school should ask which category to use.
