2026 Community Grant
The Windham Endowment for Community Advancement's competitive Community Grant
program makes grants available to Windham-based nonprofits, Town of Windham
committees or commissions, and the Windham School District. The program funds
projects that respond to local needs, strengthen community connections, and
improve the well-being of our residents. In 2026, $3,000 in total grant funding
was available.
Through the Community Grant, the Windham Endowment seeks to deepen its
partnerships with other nonprofits, broaden the collective impact in the
community, and increase the reach of its funding programs.
