How to Apply for a Grant

Beginning with the May 15, 2009 deadline, applications must be submitted online ONLY!

Applications must include a current 501(c)3 status letter and a list of the organization's officers and directors with their affiliations.  An audited financial report and an annual report may be included, as well as any other relevant paperwork.

Deadlines for submitting an application are:

  • Ohio - February 15, May 15, August 15 and November 15

  • California - February 15 and May 15

It is suggested that organizations contact the Foundation staff member who represents their geographic area before submitting an application to determine if the grant request falls within the Foundation's priorities.

 How Funds Are Allocated

The Foundation board of directors determines how funds are allocated based on written grant applications submitted by the applicants. The directors meet four times a year -- usually in February, April, July and October -- to allocate funds.
