Key takeaways

  • The foundation paid out $1,520,944 in its latest filing year, but the filing gives no grant range, so there is no published size to aim for and any request should be justified from your own budget and the specific use.
  • Its general support has gone to various Vermont charities, and the filing does not establish their fields, so a clear description of your work and where you operate is the best way to show fit.
  • The filing shows grants mainly in North Carolina, but no geographic focus is stated, so that should not be read as a limit; if your area lies outside Vermont, ask the foundation before writing.
  • Applications are accepted with no stated deadline, but the filing does not say how to submit them, so confirm the route first and include your name, address and telephone number, the purpose, and the proposed use of the grant.
  • The record gives no basis for judging how competitive the foundation is or whether relationships matter.
