Current grants
McKnight is no longer accepting new requests for funding in this program area.
Our current out-of-school time grants seek to support quality programs for school-age children and youth during the out-of-school time in the
Twin Cities metro area. We believe that some of the most powerful programs blend traditional enrichment activities (artistic, recreation, career-oriented) with intentional strategies that respond to children's unique developmental and academic needs.
Future funding
In 2011, McKnight helped establish a new out-of-school time funding partner based in the Twin Cities.
All new McKnight investments for grants and related activities are now managed by Youthprise, an organization with the stated mission to champion learning beyond the classroom so that all Minnesota’s youth thrive.
