What Is the Community Champion Grant?
The Community Champion Grant is a financial grant awarded to nonprofit organizations whose work aligns with the mission of the Corporal Daegan Page Foundation.
Grants are designed to help organizations expand services, meet urgent needs, or strengthen programs that directly support veterans, military families, and community well-being. Funding is flexible and intended to meet real-world needs rather than impose rigid requirements.
Many nonprofit organizations operate with limited resources while serving people with complex and urgent needs. When those organizations are supported, entire communities benefit.
This program honors Corporal Daegan Page by investing in people who serve with integrity, loyalty, and commitment. It reflects Daegan’s belief in showing up and taking care of one another.
