In August of 2024, $2,500 was awarded to Feed 5,000 at the "Ode to Black Philanthropy" event!
At its discretion, the Carlo and Nika White Foundation may award grants and make financial contributions to organizations and individuals through a vetting process of which members of the CNWF Board of Directors and/or CNWF Board of Advisors will engage. Funding priorities that inform these grant decisions are to align with our three Es: Education, Edification, and Economic Development.
In short, we wish to see communities empowered through Christ and Commerce.
We invite you to submit your proposal request via the below online form for your opportunity to be considered. Based on data presented in this first step, we will follow up to inform you if there’s alignment with the CNWF mission necessitating continuation of the vetting process.
Successful proposals for projects funded by CNWF should be able to clearly demonstrate how the implementation of the initiative they propose will benefit and amplify Christ, Commerce and/or Community.
Among the elements the committee will consider are: impact, need, ability to implement, sustainability, efficiency, availability of additional funding, and the ability to be replicated.
