What We Fund


Please see the program pages for more specific information on each program area’s funding guidelines. Our grants list and more information on current grantees will become available as we continue building our website.

 

Across all programs, the Foundation only funds organizations based in and working in the United States and are 501c3 organizations or those fiscally sponsored by 501c3 organizations. We do not fund individuals, endowments or religious concerns. We do not accept unsolicited proposals.


 
 

Invited Applicants


You can access your application form by logging on to the portal here. Please note the form will only be visible on the homepage of your organization's primary contact.

 

In general we encourage applicants to use materials they have on hand, originally prepared for other funders. Please feel free to copy and paste directly into the portal.

Similarly, we have no specific forms or formats for the budgets requested in applications. Please do not create a new budget for us; in most cases we encourage grantees to submit their organization's overall and, when applicable, a project budget.


 
 

Current Grantees


You can access your application form by logging on to the portal here. Please follow the steps in the “Invited Applicants” section above to submit invited renewal applications.

 

Reports: Report due dates can be found in the grant letter mailed to you with your grant check. Six weeks after you receive your grant check the report form and deadline will be available on the portal, under the pending reports section of the homepage of your organization's primary contact.

We encourage grantees to use materials they have on hand, originally prepared for other funders and existing budgets for reports.


 
 
 

We’ve launched a grants management portal!
