FUNDING PRIORITIES APPLY CONTACT

Apply For A Grant

All grant requests must be submitted through the Foundation’s online application. We support only 501(c)(3) organizations, and do not provide funding to individuals or politically partisan groups. Please review our Funding Priorities for more information about the types of organizations and geographies we support.

APPLY FOR A GRANT

New Applicants

We have a two-step process for new applicants that begins with an LOI. After careful review of each LOI, the Foundation will let applicants know whether they should submit a full grant application.

Who: Organizations who are not current grantees should submit an LOI as the first step in the grant application process. This applies to any organization that is new to the Foundation or whose last grant was awarded before 2021.

When:

Our LOI year runs from September 1 – August 31.
Applications are reviewed weekly.
LOI submitted in September-December are considered for funding the following calendar year.
If you wish to be considered for a specific grant application deadline, please submit your LOI at least 6 weeks beforehand to allow adequate time to submit an application, if approved.
Organizations may apply once per LOI year (Sept-Aug).

Current grantees may skip the LOI process and proceed directly to a grant application.

When:

We fund on a calendar year basis. The grant application is available starting in mid-October, and remains open until the Q4 deadline.
Applications are reviewed quarterly.
Organizations may apply once per year, in advance of whichever deadline best meets your current needs. You do NOT need to wait 365 days from your last grant.
