The Scully Peretsman Foundation
At a glance
This funder does not accept unsolicited applications. The foundation chooses the organisations it funds itself.
Key takeaways
- The foundation mainly supports educational, medical and research institutions, and selectively invests in educational equity for inner-city K–12 populations, so a small charity should first check that its work sits in one of those areas.
- The filing states that the foundation does not accept unsolicited requests and works by invitation only, so a cold application is unlikely to be considered.
- The realistic route is an existing connection, with any proposal sent only after an invitation.
- The filing gives no grant range and no geographic focus, so it cannot be said what size of request would fit or where the foundation funds, and a request should not be sized on the basis of its total annual giving of $13,576,553.
- Charities whose work falls outside education, medicine, research and inner-city K–12 equity are unlikely to match its stated interests.
