KACF National Grants 2023 RFP Information Session

This is a recording of our National Grants RFP information session held on September 18. Our Programs team provides an overview of the Foundation's funding priorities and grantmaking process.
The Korean American Community Foundation (KACF) is now accepting applications for the 2023 National Grants cycle. Organizations outside of New York and New Jersey only are invited to apply for this funding opportunity through October 13, 2023 at kacfny.org/grants.
While we remain committed to continuing our work locally in New York and New Jersey, we have been hearing the need for funding support in other regions that are homes to large Korean American populations. To that end, we have established a National Grant program to support impactful yet underfunded organizations across the country that share our grantmaking goal to increase the economic security of low-income Korean and Asian Americans.
Eligible organizations can apply for up to $50,000 in program-specific or general operating support. The grant application is available in English and Korean, and the Foundation welcomes organizations to submit their responses in either language. Funding decisions will be announced in December 2023.
About the Korean American Community Foundation (KACF): KACF was founded in 2002 by a group of Korean American leaders in New York to address the chronic underinvestment in the Korean immigrant community. Over the past 21 years, the Foundation has led a philanthropic movement, mobilizing Korean Americans to give back to their community and distributing $12 million in grants to fund nearly 400 projects serving low-income Korean and Asian immigrants in the greater New York area.
