Frequently Asked Questions

What is a foundation grant?

A foundation grant is funding awarded by a grantmaking foundation — a private, family, community, or corporate entity created to support charitable causes — typically to 501(c)(3) nonprofits. Foundations define their own focus areas, eligible geographies, grant sizes, and application processes, so what they fund and how to apply varies widely from one funder to the next.

What types of foundations make grants?

The main types are private foundations (often funded by a single source such as a family or individual), family foundations, community foundations (which pool donations to serve a specific region), and corporate foundations (funded by a company). Each operates differently: community foundations tend to fund locally, private and family foundations follow a donor's interests, and corporate foundations often align grants with the company's business and regions of operation.

How do you apply for foundation grants?

Some foundations accept open applications or letters of inquiry on a published cycle, while many — especially smaller family foundations — give only by invitation. The most effective approach is to research each foundation's stated priorities and past grantees for fit, follow their specific guidelines exactly, and where possible build a relationship with the program staff before submitting a full proposal.
