Junior League of Lexington Community Grants

In celebration of our Centennial in 2024, the Junior League of Lexington is pleased to announce funding of one agency at $60,000 or two agencies at $30,000 each to support Central Kentucky nonprofit organizations.

We fund high-impact projects that:

  • promote quality of life
  • serve a substantial number of residents in a meaningful way 
  • allow for volunteer opportunities for Junior League members

*NOTE: This funding is provided for the 2025 calendar year. All proposals will be evaluated based on the factors above.


Proposals will be reviewed and a limited number advanced to a second round. A representative of the organization is requested to make a 10-minute presentation to the funding committee, which will be scheduled in early/mid-July. 

To be eligible for a community grant, organizations must be a registered 501(c)3 in good standing and operate within Central Kentucky (Bourbon, Boyle, Clark, Fayette, Franklin, Garrard, Jessamine, Madison, Mercer, Scott and Woodford counties).

All proposals for either a $60,000 grant or $30,000 grant must be submitted via the Junior League of Lexington's Grant Application. Please email Laura Prather with questions at Grants@lexjrleague.com
