2026 LDAMF Mini-Grant Program Application

Thank you for your interest in applying for a mini-grant from the Lauren Dunne Astley Memorial Fund. The mission of the LDAMF is to promote dynamic and innovative educational programs in three areas: Effective Teen Relationships & Violence Prevention, the Arts, and Community Service. We welcome applications from individuals and organizations for initiatives aiming to make a measurable, meaningful difference in any of these three areas.

Given financial constraints in this year of growth and change for the LDAMF, this season’s mini-grant program will be somewhat scaled back in terms of the number of grants to be awarded. We still expect to support numerous projects aiming to make a difference in all three of our mission areas and look forward to hearing your vision!

Mini-grant requests must not exceed $2,000, and the application deadline is June 30, 2026.
