Quinn Hill Foundation
At a glance
Key takeaways
- Quinn Hill Foundation's three areas are sustainable food systems, small towns and rural communities, and youth and family services, so an organisation working in one of these should check fit first.
- Its filing names registered charities, municipalities and seniors housing as eligible recipients, so organisations outside those categories should confirm eligibility before applying.
- Most of its grants are small, with half at $1,000 or less and a median of $1,000, so a modest request fits, although about 8 in 10 of its 110 grants fall between $1,000 and $10,000 and its largest grant was $150,000.
- Applications are accepted on a rolling basis through its grant-application form, so there is no deadline to miss, and the foundation may reward continuity, since 45% of its grant dollars in its latest filing went to organisations it had also funded the year before.

Priority Areas
Quinn Hill Foundation identifies three areas of work: sustainable food systems; small towns and rural communities; and youth and family services. In food systems, it aims to build community, educate and inform the public about healthy food systems, particularly diversified local and regional systems that are healthy, safe, economically sound and environmentally sustainable. It supports small towns and rural areas to become resilient, connected and inclusive communities, and seeks places where people want to live, work, visit, do business and raise families. In youth and family services, it aims to help children, young people and families overcome obstacles and thrive, working with local and national organisations to provide both systemic and immediate help. The application identifies registered charities, municipalities and seniors housing as eligible recipients.
