Three Priority Areas
- Conservation
- The primary focus of the Foundation’s grant making in Conservation is the protection of the world’s oceans and species. The Foundation is interested in site-specific projects designed to improve the health of ocean habitats and to enhance their ability to withstand the challenges of climate change. In addition, the Foundation supports efforts to fund species protection, particularly regarding the seas’ apex predators. Eligible projects include research, conservation and/or restoration. Grants for other types of water-related conservation efforts may be considered on a limited basis.
- Performing Arts
- Performing arts grants focus on classical music and theater. Grantee organizations include performers, presenters (including broadcasters) and educators. They are currently considering grants to the Chicago area, the Mid-Atlantic Region (from Washington, D.C. north to Wilmington, DE) and the Cleveland area.
- Social Causes
- The goal of the Foundation’s grant making in Social Causes is to address the root causes of urban poverty and inequality. The Foundation seeks to support programs that help alter the life trajectories of socioeconomically disadvantaged individuals and families toward a path to self sufficiency. Priority will be given to programs that emphasize evidence-based prevention and early intervention programs for low-income, disadvantaged youth and families of color. A limited number of grants will be considered for policy and advocacy efforts which address barriers that disproportionately impact low-income, communities of color. Priority areas are Education, Economic Empowerment, and Equity. The majority of Social Causes grants focus on the Chicago area.
Types of Support
- General Operating
- This is the most flexible type of grant. Funds may be applied in any manner in which the organization sees fit, subject to its mission.
- Program/Project Grants
- These grants are targeted to a specific program or goal. Applicants must submit a program budget and narrative to support their applications.
- Education
- Education grants support programs which disseminate information crucial to the organization’s mission. They may include, but are not necessarily limited to: lectures, demonstrations, workshops, guided tours, exhibitions, and distribution of printed or online materials.
Eligibility Criteria
Applicants must have a 501(c)(3) determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service and be designated as a public charity.
