Davie Family Foundation

• The foundation aims to promote the health, wellbeing and education of youth worldwide, with particular emphasis on technology for regenerative agriculture and food security, and it names the US, Ghana and Kenya as priority areas, so work in those fields and places fits best.
• Most of its grants to organisations are modest: about 8 in 10 fall between $3,500 and $175,000, and half of its 12 grants were $20,000 or less, so a request in that region is realistic, though its largest grant was about $185,000, so that band is not a ceiling.
• Applications are accepted on a rolling basis through a short form or by email, and the form asks you to quantify the impact you expect and whether you can provide a written update each quarter, so prepare both before you apply.
• In the filing, 44% of grant dollars to organisations went to groups it had also funded in an earlier filing, so relationships may matter, but a first approach is still open to you.
