COMMUNITYPARTNERSHIP GRANT
This Grant is awarded to organizations requesting assistance to complete a renovation project that will make a difference within their community. Nonprofits in need of skilled volunteers and materials for a project involving painting, drywall finishing, or glazing are invited to apply. Three (3) grant projects will be awarded throughout PDC 30’s geographical boundaries and the projects will be scheduled throughout the winter and spring of each year.
We are thrilled to announce the award recipients of our 2026 grant cycle! Community Partnership Grants were awarded to Fox Valley United Way (Aurora), Well Child Center (Elgin), and YouthBuild McLean County (Bloomington). Our organization will complete renovation projects for each award recipient throughout the remainder of the year. All renovation work will be performed by our union members - these highly trained professionals take pride in their work and continuously seek opportunities to volunteer their skills, showcase their craft, and give back.
Thank you to all of the organizations that applied for a grant during our 2026 grant cycle! We were honored to learn about the impactful work of so many nonprofit organizations throughout our area, and we are grateful to be able to support our communities through grant opportunities each year.
Our 2026 grant application cycle is now closed. Please check back for information on our 2027 grant cycle.
PATCHFOUNDATION GRANT
This Grant is awarded to organizations requesting financial assistance to develop or enhance a program that will address a specific need relating to children within the community. One PATCH Foundation Grant will be awarded per calendar year, in the amount of $20,000.
We are thrilled to announce the award recipients of our 2026 grant cycle! The 2026 PATCH Foundation Grant was awarded to Suicide Prevention Services of America (Batavia). The organization works to reduce the number of suicides and stigmas surrounding mental health in our local communities through education, prevention, intervention, and postvention programming. The $20,000 grant funding will enable SPSA to offer presentations to students grades 3-12 in Kane, Kendall, and DeKalb counties at no charge to the school districts. This shift in fee structure will increase outreach and reduce access barriers, allowing the organization to reach more children who are in need. We are excited to support their important work.
