Chintimini Fund » Oregon Community Foundation Providing enrichment opportunities for high-potential students. APPLICATION WINDOW: JANUARY 16 - MARCH 12, 2026 The Chintimini Fund of Oregon Community Foundation supports programs for high-potential students — including those identified as talented and gifted (TAG) — at schools and other community organizations in Douglas, Benton, Lane, Linn, Tillamook and Lincoln counties.
The Fund encourages programs that inspire and motivate "bright but bored" students who are not fully engaged by existing school programs. OCF is pleased to offer school districts an opportunity to apply for a grant to fund in-school or extracurricular programs that provide enrichment opportunities for high-potential students and other children who show a capacity for high achievement.
Our current request for proposals describes program goals, the application process and national research about excellence in programming for high-potential students. Competitive proposals will fulfill the program goals, incorporate research-based and innovative strategies, and integrate program planning with program evaluation in mind. Average grant awards are expected to range from $3,000 to $7,000 each.
Eligible applicants include schools, public agencies and 501(c)(3) nonprofits in Lane, Linn, Benton, Douglas, Tillamook and Lincoln counties.

Eligible expenses include materials, program marketing costs, staff time and administrative support.

The National Leadership Grants for Libraries Program (NLG-L) supports projects that address critical needs of the library and archives fields and have the potential to advance practice and strengthen library and archival services for the American public. Successful proposals will generate results such as new models, tools, research findings, services, practices, and/or alliances that can be widely used, adapted, scaled, or replicated to extend and leverage the benefits of federal investment. Applications to IMLS should both advance knowledge and understanding and ensure that the federal investment made generates benefits to society. Specifically, the goals for this program are to generate projects of far-reaching impact that: • Build the workforce and institutional capacity for managing the national information infrastructure and serving the information and education needs of the public. • Build the capacity of libraries and archives to lead and contribute to efforts that improve community well-being and strengthen civic engagement. • Improve the ability of libraries and archives to provide broad access to and use of information and collections with emphasis on collaboration to avoid duplication and maximize reach. • Strengthen the ability of libraries to provide services to affected communities in the event of an emergency or disaster. • Strengthen the ability of libraries, archives, and museums to work collaboratively for the benefit of the communities they serve. Throughout its work, IMLS places importance on diversity, equity, and inclusion. This may be reflected in an IMLS-funded project in a wide range of ways, including efforts to serve individuals of diverse geographic, cultural, and socioeconomic backgrounds; individuals with disabilities; individuals with limited functional literacy or information skills; individuals having difficulty using a library or museum; and underserved urban and rural communities, including children from families with incomes below the poverty line.
