The Icicle Fund provides 1- and 2-year unrestricted grants to non-profit organizations that make an impact in North Central Washington.
Grants are awarded via one of the Icicle Fund’s three focus areas: the arts, history and culture, and environmental education and conservation. These unrestricted funds can be used for programs, salaries/benefits, technology, capacity-building, communications or any other effort that strengthens the organization and its capacity for short- and long-term mission delivery.
“The strongest emotion anybody has is their sense of place.”
HARRIET BULLITT
A sense of place is central to the mission of the Icicle Fund. We believe that strong connections of people-to-place are built and nurtured through artistic expression, imagination, understanding of the past, experience in nature, and care for wildlife and natural landscapes.
Through this culture of respect, trust and collaboration, individuals and organizations thrive, and the environment, arts and history of North Central Washington flourish.
Over the past 28 years, we are proud to have provided over $50 million in support to organizations focused on these three critical areas. In addition to strengthening the capacity of our region’s non-profit sector, our support has allowed individual organizations to be successful in innovative and impactful ways.
