3. INFORM, RESPOND & COLLABORATE
The Community Foundation of Collier County’s strategic plan
ties its grantmaking to relevant community information on
needs to produce an annual report on community VITAL SIGNS.
The ultimate goal is a convergence of knowledge to INFORM
the philanthropic community, RESPOND through grantmaking
to support and partner with nonprofits providing critical
programs, and COLLABORATE with donors and others to
significantly impact highest priority needs.
4. KEY GUIDING PRINCIPLES FOR GRANT APPLICANTS
In order to have the most impact through grantmaking, the
Community Foundation has identified key guiding principles to fund
new grant applications:
•Credible community data is needed to be a strategic
grantmaker;
•Prevention is more cost-effective than intervention;
•Organizational capacity is needed to deliver excellent programs;
•Collaboration is often the most efficient way to deliver services.
To reach our goals, the Foundation funds grants to improve the
capacity of nonprofit organizations and to support innovative, new
or existing programs and services that address a documented
community need.
5. PRIORITY FUNDING AREAS FOR COLLIER COUNTY
Grants will focus on increasing the number of citizens
who:
•Engage in community life, the arts and/or conserving
the environment;
•Succeed in programs that provide education and
workforce training;

7. A FOCUS ON IMPORTANT VITAL SIGNS IN 2014
Within each priority funding area, we have identified
indicators of community well-being that are
measures of need in Collier County. Although we

white, black and Hispanic students;

•Nonprofit leadership and collaboration;
9. A FOCUS ON IMPORTANT VITAL SIGNS IN 2014

female-headed households with children ages five and
under;
