OCCF has a new link for the grant portal. Grants are now managed by Greater Northwest Kansas Community Foundation. To apply for grant applications, go to www.gnwkcf.org/grants or contact grants@gnwkcf.org or785-734-2406 with questions. The Osborne County Community Foundation is 100% COUNTY-FOCUSED and excited about serving our community.
The Foundation became an affiliate of GNWKCF in 2023. An affiliate is a collection of community funds to increase philanthropic giving in a geographic area. Both endowed and non-endowed funds are developed to provide financial support to 501(c)(3) and other qualifying nonprofit organizations and for charitable purposes to benefit area residents.

Donors receive charitable gift receipts for the contributions to their established DAF. The fund is normally named in someone’s memory or established as a “Family Fund”, however, the donor(s) may personalize as they wish. The donor(s) are setup as the advisors to their Fund, which allows them to make all grant recommendations from their DAF. Grant recommendations must be to qualifying charitable 501(c)(3) organizations, educational, government or religious entities per IRS rules. The donor(s) may name succeeding generations as successor advisors or transition it to the Foundation to advise over upon donor(s) death.
Think about the future of your county. Does it have what it needs to be a great place for generations to come? How can you make sure it does? The answer is simple: Keep 5 in Kansas! By investing in Osborne County through the Osborne County Community Foundation, we’ll have permanent funding to support our schools, hospital, parks and nonprofits…for tomorrow’s residents.
