The Saturday Club’s Grant Fund Program

The Saturday Club’s Grant Fund Program supports local charitable organizations that enhance the lives of women, children, and families in Greater Philadelphia. Funded through member fundraising efforts, the program opens for applications in November with a deadline in early January. Eligible non-profits must be 501(c)(3) or 501(c)(4) and focus on specific projects. Grants are awarded annually in April, with prior year budgets required for applicants.

The Grant Program represents the culmination of all the hard fundraising work our members do each year. We provide direct contribution of funds raised via our events to help support local charitable and philanthropic organizations that work to enrich the lives of women, children, and families in the Greater Philadelphia region. While reviewing grant applications each year, we may also award free rentals of the clubhouse for an organization to use toward a fundraising event of their own.
We typically open our grant application in November each year with an early January deadline. The Philanthropy Committee will review all eligible applicants for consideration each new year. Grants are presented annually in April to the awarded organizations.
