Shayne Lopez • September 30, 2021

The John Glazer Impact Fund is allocating up to $25K of its principle in grants, in an average distribution of $5-7K per grant, for local impact businesses or impact business model development.  The fund accepts proposals on a competitive basis and does not guarantee disbursement in any grant cycle.  The fund advisory committee seeks competitive applicants who have a well-delineated mission, are addressing a viable market, and also fit some or all of these additional criteria:

  • Are focused on economic vitality, especially in the environment, social justice, and/or the health and wellness sectors
  • Are catalyzing new ideas and expanding boundaries
  • Are proposing distinct, impact-related metrics
  • Are seeking impact measurement
  • Are  matching their Glazer Fund ask with other existing funding or additional applications to other funds

Please apply through the ACF Fall Grant Cycle.
