M·A·C AIDS Fund United States Community Grants Program Accepting Applications for Housing Grants

The M·A·C AIDS Fund United States Community Grants Program supports organizations working to address the link between poverty and AIDS through grants for programs that provide food and nutrition or housing services to people living with HIV and AIDS.

The fund has released the guidelines and application for the housing component of the community grants program. (The food and nutrition application was released earlier this year and the deadline has passed.) Eligible organizations may apply for only one of the two grant opportunities each year.

The goal of the housing initiative is to positively impact the health of low-income Americans living with HIV by increasing the availability of and access to permanent housing.

To be eligible, organizations must have 501(c)(3) status and have been in operation for a minimum of three years. Applicants must provide direct housing services targeted to people living with HIV/AIDS. Organizations also must have a non-discrimination policy that includes sexual orientation and specifically protects LGBTQ clients.

Grants will range up to $50,000. Grant requests should not exceed 20 percent of the total housing program budget.

Visit the M·A·C AIDS Fund Web site for complete program guidelines, the eligibility questionnaire, and online application.
