Reimagine Grants

Reimagine Grants support innovation and seeding of new ideas that result in significant positive social impact and help solve key community challenges in Sonoma Valley. 

These grants fill a gap in funding for nonprofits that want to innovate and reimagine how we can solve complex local issues in our community.

The program compliments other local grant funding by supporting complex, unusual, and perhaps risky ideas.
