Moving Regional Change Forward through Chapters

Because the donations Jack and Jill of America, Inc. chapters make are so meaningful, it is important that they see some of their Foundation contributions returned to their local communities. One way this happens is through the Jacquelinee Robinson Regional Competition Grant, a means for Chapters to secure funding for projects of interest that promote the Foundation’s five-point strategy for building tomorrow’s leaders.

To ensure that projects with the greatest potential are considered, applications are channeled to regional screening committees for review. This method of review creates healthy competition among chapters on a regional basis. The Screening Committee then forwards the proposals judged to be the most innovative and regionally effective to the Foundation for funding consideration.  Applications are due to Members-At-Large by December 1 for the intial screening then to the Foundation office by February 15.

This grant is awarded for a one-year period. Programs that have been previously awarded a Jacqueline Robinson Regional Competition Grant must compete for continued funding.   Click here  for the application coversheet.
