Critical medical research, literacy, affordable housing, and food insecurity, just to name a few. We&#8217;ve spoken about how grants help to fund many initiatives and programs that provide critical resources and support. While this is vital, it&#8217;s also fun to talk about holidays that no one knows about &#8212; but they exist! Today is <strong>Make Life Beautiful Day<\/strong>. This honestly is, a great name for a holiday. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While we&#8217;re here to talk about making life beautiful, I also thought I&#8217;d share some grants that help with social good. These grants help improve the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.grantwatch.com\/grants-filter.php?recipient_id%5B%5D=1&amp;recipient_id%5B%5D=2&amp;recipient_id%5B%5D=3&amp;category_id%5B%5D=55\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">quality of life<\/a> for communities, making life more beautiful for many people. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Make Life Beautiful Day Is Today! Let&#8217;s Talk About How <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>So obviously, this isn&#8217;t the type of official holiday where school is canceled or you get the day off work. But even though this holiday was started by a beauty company and isn&#8217;t on a general holiday calendar, that doesn\u2019t mean we can&#8217;t learn from it. In fact, we could all do more to contribute to making life better for more people. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Here&#8217;s a few things you could do: <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>1. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.guidestar.org\/NonprofitDirectory.aspx#:~:text=GuideStar%20is%20the%20most%20complete,research%20the%20sector%2C%20and%20more.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Volunteer <\/a>for a local organization that helps the community.<br \/>2. <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.grantnews.com\/23-large-brands-that-pledge-more-than-1m-to-social-justice-causes\/\" target=\"_blank\">Donate <\/a>to an organization that&#8217;s doing good works.<br \/>3.

Visit your friends, neighbors, or relatives.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>These are just a few ideas for how you could make life a little more beautiful for someone else &#8211;today and any other day. <br \/><em>But, for organizations focused on making life better, grant funds could help with their important initiatives. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Here&#8217;s a Few Grants That Can Help <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>So, I&#8217;ve found four grants for you to check out that work on helping to improving quality of life for more people. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Let&#8217;s start with Colorado: <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1.
