Manning Family Foundation
Since 2003, the Manning Family Foundation has been advancing health and healthy communities by awarding grants to exceptional nonprofit organizations. We proudly support innovation in two primary program areas: Health & Life Sciences Research and Local Giving.
Local Giving
Our focus in Charlottesville-area grants has been on organizations serving physical and mental health, providing educational and developmental opportunities for children, and promoting financial literacy.
We place a particular emphasis on groups that serve at-risk youth and disadvantaged segments of our community, as well as those providing free physical and mental health services to people who otherwise could not afford them.
Eligibility
Manning Family Foundation offers grants to 501(c)(3) nonprofits who perform valuable work in our two philanthropic focus areas.
