NDASA Foundation
Community Grant Application
Funding for nonprofits, coalitions, and first responder agencies working toward drug-free communities.
Application Deadline: March 1, 2026
About This Grant
The NDASA Foundation funds nonprofit organizations, community coalitions, and first responder agencies whose work advances drug prevention, public education, recovery support, and community health and safety.
Grants support specific initiatives — prevention programs, awareness campaigns, first responder overdose response, recovery services, and community outreach — rather than general operating expenses.

- Your organization's 501(c)(3) determination letter or equivalent nonprofit documentation

What Happens Next
