Take Action: Nominate Community Organizations for ICUF Financial Inclusion Grants

April 15, 2024

As part of the Iowa Credit Union Foundation's (ICUF) ongoing commitment to promoting financial inclusion and community development, the ICUF Financial Inclusion Grant Program has been created. 

This program stems from the findings published in ICUF's 2023 Economic Realities of Communities of Color statewide report. 

The ICUF Financial Inclusion Grant Program will direct funding to organizations that are enhancing financial inclusion and improving financial well-being for minority populations in Iowa in the areas of:

• Affordable Housing
• Business Ownership
• Childcare
• Education
• Employment
• Health Access & Outcomes

If you know a community organization that is making a positive difference in the lives of underserved individuals, nominate them for this program. Only credit union-nominated organizations will be able to apply for grants. Nominations are open until May 17. ICUF will review nominations and invite qualifying organizations to apply for financial inclusion grants. 

Through these grants, ICUF's goal is to empower community organizations to expand their impact and reach even more individuals and families in need.
