Thank you for your interest. The New Century Trust is suspending the spring 2012 grant cycle to allow the committee time for restructuring. Check the website later in the spring for information on our new focus and process. We plan to issue a request for proposals in the summer or fall.

A list of the Board of Directors with their affiliations
A list of major staff with one- to two-paragraph resume for project or organization's leaders
A brief (one-paragraph) history of the organization

Incomplete applications will not be considered.

The New Century Trust does NOT fund the following:

organizations that are not determined to be a tax-exempt organization under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code
scholarships to individuals
endowments
emergency funds for grant applicant's operating costs
capital campaigns
international initiatives
individuals
tickets and tables for special events
religious organizations for religious purposes
political organizations for political purposes
public, private, or parochial schools
an organization's deficits

Organizations with current grants from the New Century Trust are not eligible to apply for another grant until twenty-four (24) months have elapsed since the funding cycle in which they submitted their proposal for their current grant. The Trust does not make multi-year grants.

The terms and conditions of NCT grant-giving guidelines are subject to modification at the discretion of the New Century Trust.
