The Foundation encourages proposals for innovative and creative projects that address problems to be solved or opportunities to be seized in the Beaver County area.

Grants are made only for capital items and for seed money for new agencies, or new projects by established agencies. The Foundation does not fund operations or to pay off deficits. Grants to churches and religious organizations are made in cases where projects clearly benefit the entire community. Preference is given to matching grant opportunities.
