The deadline for the contest is June 30.
The winner of the Spark! contest will name and establish a TFEC area-of-interest fund. The fund will enable donors to support a broad area of concern, such as the environment, arts and culture, or education. TFEC’s Grantmaking Committee will then award grants to nonprofit organizations within the area of interest through a competitive application process.
“The word “philanthropy” has a stigma attached to it. Many assume it is only reserved for a specific type of person, one with a certain amount of wealth and stature,” TFEC president and CEO, Janice Black said in a news release. “Our vision in creating Spark! is to break down these misconceptions and show members of our communities that anyone can be a philanthropist, and everyone can make a difference.
