Nonprofit and educational organizations focused on human needs, the environment, education and their community but in need of financial support have a new opportunity courtesy of Dominion Energy.

Organizations committed to these areas that operate within Dominion Energy’s service areas are encouraged to apply for the Dominion Energy Charitable Foundation’s spring grant cycle, which was announced last Thursday, March 7.

“Nonprofit organizations work hard every day to address a variety of community needs and opportunities,” Hunter A. Applewhite, president of the Dominion Energy Charitable Foundation, said in a statement.

“These grants will help them make an even greater impact for good.”

As part of a new application process, the Foundation will accept grant requests annually, once in the spring and once in the fall. The spring grant application period will close at 5 p.m. Tuesday, April 2.

Dominion Energy service areas where organizations would qualify include Virginia, South Carolina, northeastern North Carolina and West Virginia. Grant award decisions will be announced in June.
