To strengthen our community through philanthropy.
Greater Cedar Rapids Community Foundation’s recent grantmaking is anchored by large, repeated support for local crisis services, scholarship funds, and community institutions in Cedar Rapids and greater Linn County. One of the clearest patterns is its sustained backing of Foundation 2 Crisis Services, including a 2025 grant of $371,323 for emergency youth shelter support, group violence intervention, mental health programming, and capital needs. The foundation also gave $330,730 in 2025 to United Way of East Central Iowa for general support and several named community efforts, showing a mix of unrestricted and program-specific funding. Higher education and scholarship support is another visible thread: Coe College received more than one major award across recent years, with grants tied to annual designated distributions, student teacher support, and scholarships. The same local orientation appears in grants to Community Theatre of Cedar Rapids, Indian Creek Nature Center, Cedar Rapids Museum of Art, and other Cedar Rapids-area organizations. The foundation’s portfolio also includes recurring support for disaster response, public safety-related work, education, and community development.
In crisis response and youth safety, the foundation supported Foundation 2 Crisis Services with $371,323 for emergency youth shelter support, mental health matters, shelter, and group violence intervention. For youth mentoring and mental health crises, it gave $207,161 to Big Brothers Big Sisters of Cedar Rapids & East Central Iowa for maximizing youth mentoring impact, supporting youth experiencing mental health crises, and eliminating barriers to mentorship. Education is another clear theme: Coe College received $314,017 in 2025 for scholarships and general support, while Cornell College received $227,545 in 2025 for scholarships for female students interested in public service. Arts and cultural programming also appears in recent grants, including $281,620 to Community Theatre of Cedar Rapids for education support, a spring musical, and Broadway series support.
Typical grant size sits at $10,236 at the 25th percentile, $22,500 at the median, and $48,782 at the 75th percentile, while the recent file also shows several six-figure awards. The pattern is not limited to one-off gifts: multiple recipients appear across several years, including Foundation 2 Crisis Services, Coe College, United Way of East Central Iowa, Cedar Rapids Museum of Art, and Orchestra Iowa. The foundation uses a community foundation structure with donor advised funds, legacy and planned giving, and designated distributions reflected in the grant records. It also makes program-related investments, including a loan noted for the micro program at East Central Iowa Council of Governments. Program pages indicate both unsolicited grants and named scholarship opportunities.
