Forever Idaho East distributes general operating grants with special consideration given to organizations working in one of ICF’s Areas of Impact (Family Homelessness and Basic Needs, Mental and Physical Health, Educational Opportunities, and/or Access to Services). If awarded, funds may be used for any direct or indirect costs related to the organization’s activities, including payroll, rent, utilities, supplies and equipment, project costs, capital improvements, and/or programmatic needs.
