Grant Win

$20K Secured for Filipino Cultural and Arts Programs
Dare to Change supported the Foundation of Filipino Artists (FFA) in reentering the funding landscape after a period of limited organizational activity. DTC developed the funding strategy and grant application that resulted in a $20,000 award, representing FFA’s first successful grant following that period of inactivity.
The funding win provided more than immediate program support. It helped demonstrate that FFA could once again position its mission, community value, and program ideas competitively to funders. DTC worked with the organization to connect its Filipino arts and cultural mission with a clearly defined community need, creating a stronger case for investment and a foundation for future fundraising.
The award also created a pathway for FFA to resume community-facing work and begin rebuilding organizational momentum. By helping secure the grant, DTC supported the organization in moving from inactivity toward renewed programming, stronger funder readiness, and a more sustainable approach to future resource development.
