Recognizing that no two communities are alike, and no community's needs can be fully anticipated, the Cowell Foundation makes responsive grants to supplement it place-based work in Family Resource Centers, K-12 Public Education, Youth Development, and Affordable Housing.
| Responsive grants are typically available to communities that already receive support from the Foundation and have a critical need or unique circumstances which fall beyond the parameters of the Foundation's program priorities. Responsive grants are often capital projects that help build infrastructure, for example, a pediatric dental clinic, a health clinic in a school or a community dining room. Responsive grants also help build the capacity of other important organizations such as the endowments of community foundations to better serve their local non-profit organizations. |

Cowell’s responsive grants usually fall into one of two categories: capital projects or leadership development.
