Dr. Shuang Xin Tsao Private Foundation

• The foundation's stated focus is Peking Opera, so your work fits best if it supports opera companies, opera societies, cultural arts centres or Peking Opera performers, and any request must be consistent with the purpose in its articles of incorporation.
• The filing states no geographic focus, so location alone should not rule your group in or out.
• A typical grant falls between $5,000 and $40,000, with a median of $20,000 and a largest grant of $78,000, so a request of around $20,000 sits near the middle of its giving, and half of its 12 grants to organisations were $20,000 or less.
• The filing gives no deadlines, so ask the foundation about timing before sending a narrative that explains the purpose of your requirements.
• All of its grant dollars to organisations went to groups it had already funded, so a first approach should make a clear, well-argued case rather than assume an existing link.
