Preeti Mani Foundation
At a glance
This funder does not accept unsolicited applications. The foundation chooses the organisations it funds itself.
Key takeaways
- The foundation's stated focus is women's empowerment, so this is the field where an organisation's work needs to fit.
- It makes contributions only to preselected organisations and does not accept unsolicited requests, so a proposal sent without an invitation is unlikely to be considered and should not be sent.
- Its filing shows $250,000 paid out in total, but it gives no grant range, so a small organisation should not assume any particular award size.
- The information does not say how trustees choose organisations or when they decide, so there is no timing to plan around.
- Any route in would depend on an invitation, so the sensible first step is to find a way to be introduced rather than to submit a cold request.

What they fund

Priority Areas
The foundation's stated charitable activity is women's empowerment. Its filing records an organisational grant for that purpose, indicating support for work in this field. The application information says it makes contributions only to preselected charitable organisations and does not accept unsolicited requests. The available information does not identify particular types of organisations, beneficiaries, project models or geographic priorities, nor does it explain how trustees select organisations. It therefore supports a description centred on women's empowerment and preselected charitable giving, without establishing wider eligibility or a public application route.
