The Social Service League of Ithaca Foundation is pleased to announce that it is now accepting applications for its 2026-2027 grant program. The deadline for submitting applications is Monday, November 16, 2026 at 5pm.

The mission of the Social Service League is to support Tompkins County nonprofit human service organizations in their work to address the most significant community needs. Any nonprofit, incorporated, human/social service provider in Tompkins County is eligible to apply.

Requests for funding up to $3,000 will be accepted. In previous grant cycles, average awards have typically ranged between $1,000 and $1,500. Funding is not granted for capital fund drives, deficits, or proposals requiring ongoing support from the Social Service League. The League does not support regular ongoing operating expenses, unless the request shows how the activity will be supported once grant funds are spent.

The Human Services Coalition supports the Social Service League in administering this grant program.
