Creating opportunities in our communities
With a common goal of ensuring Nelsonville and the surrounding communities of Buchtel, Carbon Hill and Murray City are abundant in possibility for all who call them home, we partner with donors, doers and FAO to invest in three program areas that provide funding to local nonprofit and public organizations, students and community builders.
Grant Opportunities
Annual investments in our people and communities
With the support of our donors and in partnership with FAO, we award grants annually to nonprofits, schools and public organizations for projects and programs that create opportunities and meet needs.
Scholarship Opportunities
Investing in students
Our scholarships are made possible by donors who believe supporting the educational and career goals of our students plays a vital role in the well-being of our people and communities.
Fellowships
Uplifting the work and visions of local leaders
FAO’s fellowship program, working in partnership with its affiliate foundations, provides support to individual leaders with a goal of growing their impact from one community to many.
