Alvin and Sally Beaman Foundation
At a glance
This funder does not accept unsolicited applications. The foundation chooses the organisations it funds itself.
Key takeaways
- The Alvin and Sally Beaman Foundation, based in Brentwood, TN, paid $915,000 in grants in its latest filing, but the filing does not state a grant range or geographic focus and does not identify particular fields of work, so it is hard to judge from the filing whether a given project fits.
- The foundation contributes only to organisations it has preselected and does not accept unsolicited requests, so a small charity without an invitation should not send it an unprompted application.
- If you already have a genuine connection to the foundation, that connection is the only route the filing describes, so a short approach through it is the sensible first step.
- The filing gives no deadlines, typical request sizes or submission process, so there is no set timing to plan around and no basis in the filing for choosing a request amount.
