The Junior League of Evanston-North Shore financially supports a variety of non-profit and community agencies throughout the Chicago's North Shore by our Grant Program. Priority will be given to grant proposals that have an impact on the community and target the following Junior League Position Statements:

• Voluntarism
• Children
• Women
• Family Violence
• Senior Citizens

The Junior League of Evanston-North Shore is dedicated to the utilization of volunteers and submitted proposal applications involving volunteerism will be reviewed, as well as program expenses. All proposals should be a request not to exceed $1,500.00 per agency. Requests for on-going operating expenses will not be considered. Previous Grant recipients are not encouraged to re-submit proposals for two years. Requests will be granted only to non-profit organizations with 501(c)(3) status or governmental entities that are tax exempt.

Grant proposals are reviewed throughout the year. Applicants will receive written notification of acceptance or rejection within eight (8) weeks of the application deadline. Grant recipients are required to submit a brief summary of program activities and accomplishments within sixty (60) days of receipt of the funds.
