With the ongoing implementation of MeHAF's new 2026 - 2031 Strategic Framework, we will be redesigning the Discretionary Grants Program. The Discretionary Program is one of MeHAF’s oldest and longest-running programs and the way many organizations begin a relationship with us. It offers small grants through a simple application and a rolling deadline. These features help us respond to emerging community needs and make this our most accessible program. We will pause this program for a few months to consider changes to the grantmaking process and revise the program criteria to be better aligned with the goals and priorities in our new framework. We will keep the features that make it accessible and responsive. We plan to relaunch an updated version of the program, likely under a new, more descriptive name, in Spring 2027.
