The Cass-Clay Chapter is comprised of Cass County, ND and Clay County, MN and covers the cities of Fargo, ND, West Fargo, ND, and Moorhead, MN. Our area is teeming with ideas and energy, and we want to support those ideas in our area by giving out grants of $1000 to those who can demonstrate and deliver great projects to make our area even more awesome to live in. Have an idea? Please fill out an application!!
Please note that while you are welcome to try to convince us otherwise, we will not typically fund travel, salaries, or living expenses.
Our grant cycle ends on the last day of the month, with an award made the 15th of the following month.
If you have a question about the application process, please email us at cassclay@awesomefoundation.org
Those unable to complete the application online can call or text us at 701-429-4849
Want to follow us on FB? https://www.facebook.com/AwesomeFoundationCassClay/
