Good work deserves real support.

The Bee Fund

The Bee Fund is a small grants program for Vermonters leading community-driven initiatives. If you're organizing something that brings neighbors together and strengthens your community—we want to help make it happen. The Bee Fund exists because we believe the people already doing the work shouldn't have to do it alone.

What it supports

We fund community-led initiatives that:

  • Bring neighbors together around a shared purpose
  • Strengthen local resilience and connection
  • Create tangible, on-the-ground impact in Vermont communities

Past supported activities include conservation projects, community education events, mutual aid efforts, and more.
