Nonprofit organizations nationwide have just a few weeks remaining to submit applications for the upcoming round of grant funding from Dairy’s Foundation.
Eligible groups can request grants of up to $10,000 to support innovative projects that help dairy farmers and enhance public trust in the dairy industry and its products.
The deadline for submitting applications is June 1, 2025. Interested applicants can find detailed grant criteria and guidelines on the Foundation’s website at www.DairyFoundation.org/grant-seekers/.
Dairy’s Foundation is unique as the only publicly held national foundation dedicated to supporting educational programs and initiatives throughout the entire dairy industry food chain. Since its inception, the Foundation has awarded over $350,000 in grants to various organizations.
“The support from Dairy’s Foundation helped us introduce new programming to reach college-level students and encourage them to consider careers in the dairy industry as well as to provide them with skills that will be essential in their future,” said Jayne Sebright, executive director of the Center for Dairy Excellence in Pennsylvania. “We appreciate that Dairy’s Foundation grants are made available across the country; without the Foundation’s support, we would not have been able to expand our program the way we did.”
Grant applications will be reviewed by an independent committee, with recipients notified by August 1, 2025. Eligible applicants must hold a 501(c)(3) or 501(c)(5) tax status. For more information, inquiries can be sent to info@dairyfoundation.org.
