Nonprofit organizations within Dominion Energy's service areas are encouraged to apply for grants from the Dominion Energy Charitable Foundation.
Grants will be awarded to support programs and specific projects that focus on human needs, environmental stewardship, education, and community vitality.
The foundation accepts grant requests twice per year – once in the spring and once in the fall.
The fall grant application period is currently open and closes at 5 p.m. ET on Sept. 12. Decisions will be announced in December.
Dominion Energy and its charitable foundation gave more than $46 million to support charitable causes in 2023.
"Nonprofits play a crucial role in strengthening local communities every day. These grants will amplify their impact even more," said Hunter A. Applewhite, President of the Dominion Energy Charitable Foundation. "Partnering with nonprofits is part of Dominion Energy's ongoing commitment to support the communities we serve."
Funding is available to organizations in areas where Dominion Energy provides electricity or natural gas or has significant business interests. These include Virginia, South Carolina, northeastern North Carolina, Connecticut, and parts of West Virginia and Rhode Island.
The foundation will host virtual office hours in August and September to answer questions from nonprofit organizations about the grant application process.
