State Treasurer's Office · Amount varies

California businesses, nonprofits, individuals, public agencies, and tribal governments building or expanding a manufacturing facility involving recycled feedstock, advanced manufacturing, alternative energy, or advanced transportation technologies can apply to CAEATFA for a sales and use tax exclusion on qualifying equipment purchases. This is a tax exclusion rather than a direct cash grant, so applicants should confirm it fits their funding needs; no dollar cap or deadline is specified here.

Governor's Office of Business and Economic Development · $600K–$3M

Local health departments and community-based nonprofit organizations in California can apply, with at least 50% of each year's funding reserved for qualified nonprofits. California's GO-Biz awards $600,000 to $3,000,000 to support job placement, mental health and substance use disorder treatment, reentry legal services, and related services for communities disproportionately affected by the War on Drugs. Funding is drawn from cannabis tax revenue and program priorities can shift each fiscal year, so this is a fairly narrow, population-specific opportunity rather than a general-purpose grant.

San Gabriel and Lower Los Angeles Rivers and Mountains Conservancy · $50K–$2M

Nonprofits, public agencies, and tribal governments can apply to this San Gabriel and Lower Los Angeles Rivers and Mountains Conservancy program (Proposition 4) for multi-benefit projects like open space creation, habitat restoration, green space in disadvantaged communities, watershed protection, and wildfire resilience, with awards ranging from $50,000 to $2,000,000. The RMC especially encourages projects that leverage multiple funding sources and include robust community engagement, though no specific deadline is listed here.
