The Neag Foundation
At a glance
Key takeaways
- The Neag Foundation, based in Wyomissing, PA, suits nonprofits whose work is in Pennsylvania or Connecticut and fits its health, education or arts priorities, and it does not fund capital projects, general fundraising, annual appeals, special events, individuals or debt reduction.
- Its filing shows $4,859,765 paid in its most recent year, but the filing gives no grant range, so a small nonprofit should not assume a particular request size and should keep its ask proportionate to its project.
- Eligible organisations in Connecticut and Pennsylvania should start with the brief online application form, which lets the Foundation judge fit before a fuller proposal is needed, and applications fall within a spring window from December 1st to February 28th or a fall window from June 1st to August 31st.
- Because the Board selects recipients through a competitive process and gives preference to projects with broad-based community support, applicants should show who backs the work, how it will be implemented and how it will be sustained after funding ends.
- Groups seeking capital, general fundraising, individual support or political activity should not apply.
