Restrictions

Horizon prioritizes organizations that serve children, provide arts, enrichment, educational, and leadership opportunities, and those that advance food security. Our environmental funding in Maine will largely continue to support organizations and programs that implement the strategies of Maine Won't Wait, A Four Year Plan for Climate Action. Outside of Maine, Horizon is particularly focused on identifying and supporting organizations that: encourage learning in the classroom and beyond; help to build self-esteem; motivate individuals to reach for higher levels of educational proficiency and competency, and; strive to increase the number of safe places for children to learn, share, and ultimately become stronger leaders for the future.
