DOW HAS FUNDS FOR NONPROFITS AND EDUCATION

The Community Grants Program of Dow Texas Operations has allocated $200,000 to provide Brazoria County nonprofit organizations with funds to carry out various projects within the county. Projects should address a social, economic, or environmental need in the community and have a solid, sustainable plan for how they will work to address it. To qualify, organizations must have a 501(c)(3) federal tax designation or be a municipal or government agency and be located in southern Brazoria County. Each submission must be accompanied by a funding statement for the project.

Community projects submitted must also have a Dow employee as the sponsor for the nonprofit organization and must meet Dow’s charitable giving criteria. The deadline for applications is June 16. Applications are available at Dow’s website.

This fall, the Education Grants Program of Dow Texas Operations will make awards for math and science projects. Applications available to local school campuses beginning in August.
