The application period runs from today, November 1, to Friday, December 3, 2021. This year, more than $5 million is available in funding for summer programs. $2 million are reserved specifically for Black, Indigenous, and Person of Color-led organizations and for organizations primarily serving older youth.

 Baltimore Summer Enrichment Directory
In 2016, Baltimore Summer Funding Collaborative applicants expressed interest in building partnerships with other enrichment organizations and service providers in advance of the RFP release so that they are better prepared to submit applications for funding. 
 To this end, the Summer Funding Collaborative assembles and maintains the Baltimore Summer Enrichment Directory: a directory of organizations seeking and/or offering specific kinds of partnership, contractors, professional development, technical assistance. This directory is linked as an additional resource related to the Summer Funding Collaborative RFP. View the directory by clicking here.

If you would like to be included in the Directory, or update information from previous years, you are invited to (re)submit your information here.
