Find funds for a nonprofit in your local community. Community Savings Account Grants SDCF works to connect your nonprofit with funds to support your mission. If your community has a Community Savings Account (CSA) with the SDCF, you can apply for funding directly from your local CSA advisory committee. CSAs allow a community to invest funds with SDCF to create a long term funding source for charitable causes. Dollars raised locally, stay local. Each CSA advisory committee has their own grant application process. Here are a few items to consider prior to applying for a CSA grant. Basic Eligibility for Grant Applicants Grant applicants should be a public, nonprofit organization as defined by IRS Publication 78. If you are not certified, you may still be eligible for a local CSA grant by completing a grant acceptance policy. We encourage you to contact us if you think you may need this exception. The SDCF does not make grants in support of political campaigns, discriminatory practices, or for personal gain. The grant needs to fund a project within South Dakota. Local CSA advisory committees may have additional restrictions. How to Apply for Grants from Your Local CSA Do you know how to contact your local CSA advisory committee?
