COVID-19 Recovery Grants/Funding Opportunities

The Legacy Foundation has been proud to support our not-for-profit organizations with COVID-19 Emergent Grants totaling nearly $500,000 over the last year. Now, in the spirit of optimism and hope, we are transitioning from Emergent to Recovery Grants. Recovery Grants will generally be up to $5000 and are intended to assist not for profit organizations to get back on track and move forward after the very challenging year of 2020.
COVID-19 Recovery Grants are awarded on a case by case basis. If you are interested in applying for a COVID-19 Recovery Grant, email: info@lfsaz.org.
