How to Apply
line

The Foundation employs a two-step application process. First, prospective applicants should approach the Foundation by submitting a letter of inquiry, as described below. Then, if the letter of inquiry indicates a potential fit with the Foundation’s criteria, applicants will be invited to submit a more formal proposal.

Submit a Letter of Inquiry
Prospective applicants should carefully review the Eligibility Guidelines and What We Fund under our Children, Youth, & Families grantmaking program. Funding inquiries should demonstrate a familiarity with the program's relevant goals and strategies.

Deadlines
Letters of inquiry and invited proposals for grants larger than $82,500 need to be received by specific dates in order to be considered at one of the Foundation's three board meetings.

Preparing Your Full Proposal
If you are invited to submit a formal proposal, this link provides a template and other general instructions. Applicants should complete all sections in full and attach all required components. This helps us to process requests in a timely manner.

Outputs and Outcomes
A complete proposal requires development of outputs and outcomes to help track and monitor the project's accomplishments. Definitions, examples, and a sample worksheet on completing outputs and outcomes can be found in this section.
