How it works ?

What's a mind map?

A mind map is a diagram used to represent words, ideas, tasks, or other items linked to and arranged around a central key word or idea.

WiseMapping is based on an Open Source project. Depending on your requirements, there are two options available.

WiseMapping is perfect for individual note-taking, collaborative planning, teamwork and class rooms.

The Grant Proposal Process and What is Required

As an organization following the principles of trust-based philanthropy we believe strongly in making the process as easy and simple as possible for those seeking funding. If you are seeking funding for an existing program, we want to know how you've done so far and whether your program has worked. If this is a new program, we want to know how you believe you'll be able to make an impact over the duration of your request.

We fund educational, job-skills, and entrepreneurial programs that benefit or support the BIPOC communities in Rhode Island. There are several categories of activities that we do not fund under any circumstances:
- Building construction - Capital campaigns - Lobbying of government entities - Political campaigns or events (Note: Rhode Island-based programs for Indigenous peoples who are impacted in Connecticut and Massachusetts are also eligible for consideration.)
Please use this application if you are a 501(C) (3) entity seeking a grant to support a program.

The POC Microloan Program

If you are a for-profit business, person or entity, POC has funded several microloan programs that are administered by community service organizations working in Rhode Island's communities of color.These programs are administered by the Rhode Island Black Business Association, Rhode Island Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, and Center for Southeast Asians.Each of these organizations has set its own lending limits and eligibility criteria.

As of May 2023, POC has modified its micro loan program to ensure that more funds are put directly into the community by POC's community partners, and we have increased our funding to them, and to other partners POC may work with to make these loans available to eligible persons and businesses in need. Therefore, POC no longer makes its own direct microloans.

What Happens Once a Proposal is Funded?

Once a funding request has been approved, POC will enter into an agreement with the receiving organization or individual for the duration of the funding request. For requests larger than $350,000 per year the agreement will generally include agreed-upon anticipated performance metrics which will be reviewed as part of a reporting requirement and discussion with POC on at least an annual basis. POC will provide funding by check, only, within 10 business days following execution of the agreement. POC does not publicize the specific amount of an individual grant or microloan (except for academic scholarships). We believe it's more important to talk about the impact of your program than it is about the amount of money you have received. POC reports its funding amounts and recipients to the IRS as required by law.

Working Together

We want to hear from the BIPOC communities of Rhode Island to listen and understand where and how we can help to make and support fundamental change. Relying on our trust-based philanthropy approach, while we will ask for sufficient information to help us to measure success. We want to have regular in-person or remote conversations to hear what you're doing and confirm that things are going as planned, or if we need to work together to change course or alter direction. We will also send you a questionnaire near the anniversary of your receipt of funding from POC to ask you some questions about how you were able to impact communities of color in Rhode Island with POC funding. It's all about trust, transparency, listening and conversation. Together.

POC Reporting Requirements

As a POC funded organization, no later than one year from the date of an award you will be required to provide us with an update on the impacts made as a result of this funding over the past year. We generally operate on a trust-based philanthropy model, and therefore our reporting requirements are designed to get an understanding of the successes and challenges your organization experienced. Specifically, we will want to know the following:
- Describe the major activities supported through this grant and to whom they were provided. - What was the impact of this program, particularly as it relates to the BIPOC community? - What went well? Did you encounter any challenges and if so, and how were they addressed? - What did you learn about the participants, the community and/or the organization? - Were there any goals and outcomes that were not achieved? - Please provide the budget details for this grant and explain in narrative form any shifts or changes made from the original budget.
POC Services Provided to All Funded Organizations

501Database.com

Since POC was founded in December 2020 we have funded more than 250 organizations who have put forward programs they and we believe will help to change the narrative of RI's communities of color. But to understand how that happens - from both a close-up view and from a big picture standpoint, collecting data is key.

POC offers a data collection platform - 501Database.com - that was custom-designed with in the input of POC funded non-profit organizations. While we strongly encourage POC-funded organizations to use the 501Database.com platform for impact data collection, its use is not mandatory. If your organization is comfortable using another software platform, you may continue to do so, but please advise us what platform you are using so that we can ensure compatibility.

501 Database.com also focuses on data privacy and security by filtering out personally identifiable and sensitive client information. The platform allows our grantees to easily tag and label data fields that you may deem to be sensitive or private.

Financial and Organizational Consulting

We recognize some organizations have more resources and capabilities than others, especially when it comes to financial planning, analysis, budgeting and organizational structure. Understanding how to demonstrate smart fiscal management, and operations, when applying for grants from POC or others, can be critical to success. To help, POC has engaged consultants to work with directly with our funded organizations in the areas of financial management and organizational process.

Public Relations & Marketing

For those organizations without access to professional public relations assistance, we also provide you with limited assistance from our PR firm, The Perry Group. Each funded organization can receive help with developing a one-page news release or participate in a 2-hour brainstorm session to identify ways you can improve your marketing program.

Organizational Strengths Identification

Identifying the individual strengths within your organization, can give you as a leader a valuable tool when building teams to accomplish your objectives. POC provides access to Leadership Rhode Island's Strengths Identification Program, free of charge to all funded organizations.

Sponsorships

Since POC's founding, more than 250 organizations have received grants totaling more than $60 million. Each month POC receives dozens of requests to sponsor events, many from organizations that have already received grants from POC. While we wish we could continue to regularly support these events, it is not possible for us to do so equitably, as we continue to grow and support more organizational programming. Therefore, we will only be sponsoring events that POC self-identifies and that align with our community outreach program.
