PATH Foundation announces $1.2M in grant funding

The PATH Foundation is excited to announce the recipients of its latest round of Flexible Funding Grants. Thirty-eight organizations received nearly $1.2M in funding to support their missions and strengthen the health and vitality of everyone in our community.

The Flexible Funding grant cycle, originally introduced in January 2021, offered up to $75,000 in unrestricted general operating support for 501(c)3 nonprofit organizations that reflect the mission and values of the PATH Foundation in Fauquier, Rappahannock and Culpeper counties.

As unrestricted funds, Flexible Funding grants can be used as needed for nonprofits to meet their missions. The awards are also designed to fund a variety of projects, prioritizing organizations and populations that are most in need.

“At PATH, we’re proud to support local groups in their important work,” said Christy Connolly, president and CEO of the PATH Foundation. “We look forward to seeing our grantees use this funding to fulfill their missions. Our hope is that, through their efforts and collaboration, our community will continue to be a place where all of us can live, work, play and grow.”

All grantees have overall mission statements or ongoing programs that intersect with the PATH Foundation’s four priority areas: Access to Health, Childhood Wellness, Mental Health and Senior Services.
