Lindmor Foundation
At a glance
This funder does not accept unsolicited applications. The foundation chooses the organisations it funds itself.
Key takeaways
- The foundation does not accept unsolicited requests and gives only to organisations it has preselected, so a cold proposal is unlikely to work; the sensible first step is a warm introduction through someone connected to it.
- Almost all of its organisation grant dollars in the latest year went to organisations it had funded in earlier filings, so it leans heavily on repeat giving.
- Its typical grants fall between $10,000 and $2,500,000, the median grant was $200,000, and half of its eight organisation grants were $200,000 or less, so a request of around that size fits its record.
- No geographic focus is stated, and its purposes are broad, so location and field do not on their own rule an organisation out, though its grants have mainly been in the United States and Virginia.
