The Foundation distributes grants to nonprofits for a broad array of charitable purposes in areas such as education, the environment, the arts, health, and social services.
The Foundation encourages organizations interested in applying for a grant to call or write the Distribution Committee chair for assistance in determining eligibility for Foundation support, as well as for clarification about the application process and deadlines.
