Kate B. Reynolds Charitable Trust
At a glance
Key takeaways
- This is a well-funded trust, paying out $22,802,221 in the year reported, so it can support substantial work, though no fixed grant range is stated so you will need to discuss likely scale during enquiry.
- Its geographic focus is Forsyth County and North Carolina, so only organisations working in that area should approach it.
- The approach is relationship-led rather than a simple written application: applicants who believe they are eligible are asked to contact the grants assistant to arrange a phone consultation to discuss whether their idea is a fit before anything is submitted.
- Applications are accepted on a rolling basis, so there is no fixed deadline to work to.
- Given the emphasis on community-led solutions, racial equity and systems change, be ready to talk about how your work is shaped by and with the communities you serve, and how it fits lasting, systemic outcomes rather than a one-off activity.
