2026 Annual Grant Cycle
Who can apply: Applicants must be nonprofit organizations with tax-exempt public charity status, an established presence within Three Arches Foundation's geographic focus, and proposed work that directly serves a significant number of people in the area. Requests should align with equitable access to behavioral and/or physical health care, demonstrate experience and a proven track record delivering relevant programs or services, present an actionable approach, leverage community or organizational partnerships and resources, and include a realistic evaluation and learning plan. For the 2026 cycle, previously funded organizations are prioritized because the Foundation is refining its grantmaking approach. Grants are not made for endowments, research, debt retirement, capital or fundraising campaigns, fundraising events, membership drives, scholarships, government entities, or religious organizations. General operating support is limited to organizations whose core mission centers on behavioral and/or physical health programs or services and typically does not exceed 10% of the annual organizational budget; a prior conversation with the Foundation is required for general operating requests.
Deadline: 2026 Request Summary due July 24, 2026 by 5:00 p.m.; invited full Application due September 4, 2026. Funding decisions November 12-16, 2026. Dates subject to change. The cycle is annual.
