JAMF Accepting Grant Applications and LOIs for the 2026 Grant Cycle
The Judith Ann Mogan Foundation (JAMF) opens its application portal for the 2026 Grant Cycle on April 3, 2026.
Oregon nonprofits and publicly funded entities with projects in Southern Oregon Coast are invited to apply. A project must fall under one or more of JAMF’s seven priority areas to qualify: Arts & Culture, Children & Youth, Community Health, Convening & Gathering Places, Economic Development, Environment & Natural Resources, and Poverty Alleviation. To apply for a grant, please submit requests via the online application portal found on the JAMF website. We encourage applicants to review JAMF’s grant funding guidelines and grant cycle timeline at www.jamoganfoundation.org before applying.
For the 2026 Grant Cycle, JAMF is offering two (2) grant programs: a Small Grant program (request of $25,000 or less) and a Large Grant program (request of more than $25,000).
• The Small Grant program omits the LOI stage and is evaluated separately from the Large Grant process.
• The Large Grant program has a Letter of Inquiry (LOI) stage after which qualified applicants will be invited to fill out the Grant Application form.
Organizations can apply to one or both grant programs but are limited to a total of 2 applications for this Grant Cycle. Small Grants application and LOI forms will close on May 4, 2026.
Over the past five years, JAMF has awarded over $ 7.3 million to 189 organizations with 208 projects benefiting the Southern Oregon Coast. Beneficiary communities include Bandon, Brookings-Harbor, Charleston, Coos Bay, Coquille, Gardiner, Gold Beach, Lakeside, Langlois, Myrtle Point, North Bend, and Reedsport. A list of past organizations and projects awarded is found on the Foundation’s website.
