Unsolicited applications are not accepted

This funder does not accept unsolicited applications. The foundation chooses the organisations it funds itself.

Key takeaways

  • The foundation states that it does not accept unsolicited requests, and its filing gives no public application instructions, so a cold application is unlikely to be considered; approach it only if you are invited or preselected.
  • Its filing lists grants for homelessness, domestic and sexual violence, cancer, poverty, women and young people, military personnel and veterans, hygiene and clothing items, and women's economic independence, so check whether your work fits one of these.
  • About 8 in 10 of its 212 grants to organisations fall between $68,500 and $165,000, with a median of about $93,500, so a request of that size is typical, although its largest grant was about $5,450,000.
  • In its most recent filing, 6% of its grant dollars to organisations went to organisations it had also funded in one of the two filings before it, so repeat giving is a small share of its giving.
  • The filing shows grants mainly in Texas, California, Maryland, Washington and the United States, but no geographic focus is stated, so do not assume your area is excluded.
