General Policies
- As a matter of policy, the Foundation provides grants only to institutions/organizations which are exempt from tax under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and are not private foundations
as defined in section 509 of the Code. - A Grant Proposal Letter generally will be considered when
- outside funding for the project (including governmental) is not available;
- the project will be largely funded by the grant unless the grant request covers a discrete component of a larger project; and
- the funds will be used for endowments, capital projects, or capital equipment.
- Except for endowed positions, proposals for direct salary support will not be considered. A grant that supports a research project will also not be considered.
- Generally, the Board will only consider grant proposals from applicants in the states of Connecticut, Florida, Illinois, Indiana, Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, and Rhode Island.
- Proposals for a continuing project must include a commitment from the applicant or a third party that the project will continue to receive all the necessary financial support after the grant from the Foundation is expended.
- Grant proposals will be considered for major expenditures generally between $50,000 and $150,000, or for greater or lesser amounts in certain circumstances.
- All grants are made on the condition that the entirety of the funds advanced shall be utilized in direct furtherance of the project and that no portion thereof shall be appropriated by the Grantee as an administrative or processing fee, for overseeing the project or for the Grantee’s general overhead.
