Key takeaways

  • The foundation says it allocates its resources primarily to children's charities, cancer relief charities, Greek charities and maritime charities, so your work fits best if it falls within one of those areas.
  • It accepts applications on a rolling basis, so there is no deadline to plan around.
  • Neither a grant range nor a typical grant size is stated, so there is no published guide to how much to ask for, and a request should be sized to your costed needs.
  • The foundation says it reviews requests and checks that they merit its support, but it publishes no address, email or phone number for applications, so you will need to work out how to make contact.
  • No exclusions are stated, so a charity outside those priorities should not assume it is barred, although its fit is less clear.
