Abstract: The Boston Foundation invests in nonprofit organizations in
order to build a vibrant, cohesive, and interconnected community that
provides access to fundamental resources and opportunities for all citizens.
Through its Out of School Time funding area, the Boston Foundation will give
high priority to the following programs:
1. Systems development and capacity building (largely through
intermediaries)
2. New or existing high quality programs, primarily in Boston, seeking to
expand the number of children and youth served, with sound strategies for
resource development, and, where applicable, coordinated with the academic
goals of the schools (priority is given to organizations that deliver
programs at a significant scale)
3. Programs that specifically seek to connect the learning goals of schools
with after-school programs (particularly in literacy and mathematics)
4. Advocacy, technical assistance, and training programs (largely through
intermediaries)
The foundation will give lower priority to the following programs:
1. Support for ongoing activities not linked to a strategy
2. Programs serving a small number of children or youth
3. Summer-only programs Contact Name: Corey L. Davis, Grants Manager Contact
