McBeth Foundation Grant

The McBeth Foundation Grant supports meaningful initiatives in animal welfare, environmental conservation, the arts, children's programs, health sciences, and communications. Founded by Barbara McBeth Woodruff, the foundation aims to create measurable improvements in local communities. Grants are intended for projects that can benefit multiple individuals, fostering growth like a seed that matures into a tree, offering shade and fruit. Eligible applicants must hold a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status.

Vision StatementWelcome to the McBeth Foundation
The McBeth Foundation was created by our founder, artist and philanthropist, Barbara McBeth Woodruff (1924-2007).
To continue her legacy and in accordance with her vision, the Foundation makes meaningful grants for the benefit of animal welfare, the environment, the arts, children, health sciences, and communications.
Of particular interest are programs and projects which provide measurable improvement, rather than general funding. Grants will be made to local organizations, primarily in the geographical areas in which the Foundation has a presence.
How We Give
McBeth Grants are awarded to projects that will grow to benefit more than a single individual.
Like a seed that grows to a tree, that then provides multiple benefits of shade, fruit and additional seeds; this is how we like to see grant funding used. We provide the seed through funding but the project or donation provides immediate and long term impact.

Eligibility

You must have a copy of your Internal Revenue Service Exemption Letter approving tax-exempt status under Internal Revenue Code Section 501(c) 3.
