The Minnesota Wind Chill Foundation announced the continuation and reimagining of its youth ultimate frisbee grant program to support middle and high school teams in Saint Paul, Minnesota, and surrounding areas.
The program offers grants of up to $2,000 and fosters partnerships with the foundation to assist schools with fundraising, marketing, awareness, and recruitment events aimed at building and strengthening school-based ultimate frisbee programs.
Applications are open to students, teachers, parents, administrators, coaches, board members, and other supporters of new or existing middle and high school ultimate frisbee teams. The foundation will consider only one application per school, and no school may receive multiple grants during this funding cycle.
The application deadline is 11:59 p.m. on September 25, 2026. Interested parties can learn more and submit applications at watchufa.com/windchill/foundation. Questions about the program can be directed to Christina Burke at christina@windchillultimate.com.
