The Nick Traina Foundation Grants

The Nick Traina Foundation is dedicated to supporting organizations focused on mental health issues, particularly manic-depression and suicide prevention. While currently only accepting proposals from the San Francisco Bay Area, the foundation prioritizes smaller nonprofits with annual revenues between $750,000 and $8 million. It also offers assistance to musicians facing mental health challenges, emphasizing a community-centered approach to mental illness treatment and family support.

Note: At this time, we are not accepting grant proposals via our website. Due to the overwhelming amount of proposals received, we are focusing on those proposals from the San Francisco Bay Area only at this time.
