The Dominion Energy Charitable Foundation awards grants in 4 focus areas: Environmental Stewardship Grants from the Dominion Energy Charitable Foundation are limited to organizations defined as tax-exempt under Section 501(c)(3) of the IRS code. Grant applications are accepted online during two grant cycles each year.
Most grant awards range from $1,000 to $15,000, while higher amounts may be awarded when a program is an exceptional fit. We often receive funding requests far in excess of our Foundation budget. Regrettably we must often decline support for otherwise worthy proposals.
Such a response does not reflect on Dominion Energy's view of the value of the organization or its services. Step One: Determine Eligibility Foundation grant support is available to: Not-for-profit 501(c)(3) organizations Organizations within geographic areas where Dominion Energy provides electricity or natural gas service, or has significant facilities or business interests.
This includes: North Carolina (Northeast region) Connecticut (Hartford, Windham, Tolland, Middlesex, and New London Counties) Rhode Island (Kent and Washington Counties), and West Virginia (Grant and Tucker Counties).
Organizations that focus on education, environment, culture and the arts, civic and community development, and health and human services Foundation grant support is NOT available to: Tangible benefits, including tickets to events and utility payments to Dominion Energy or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates Religious programs of churches or other sectarian organizations Fraternal, political, advocacy or labor organizations Projects or organizations that are not located within geographic areas where Dominion Energy provides electricity or natural gas service, or has significant facilities or business interests, as listed above Organizations without 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status, including those with a fiscal sponsor.
Organizations that limit membership and services based on race, religion, color, creed, sex, age or national origin Advertising for benefit or courtesy purposes Note to organizations in Ohio, Utah, and North Carolina: Enbridge completed the acquisitions of Dominion Energy Ohio, Dominion Energy Utah/Wyoming/Idaho and Dominion Energy North Carolina Gas in 2024, and today these utilities operate as Enbridge Gas Ohio, Enbridge Gas Utah/Wyoming/Idaho and Enbridge Gas North Carolina.
Due to this transition, the Dominion Energy Charitable Foundation no longer makes grants in these areas. We continue to make grants in northeastern North Carolina where Dominion Energy is still the electric service provider. Dominion Energy Charitable Foundation now requires organizations applying for grants to have a completed cause profile with Benevity.
If your organization already has a Benevity cause profile, ensure your Self-Certification Declaration is completed. If your declaration is expired, you will need to renew it. Please do so before starting your grant application.
You will not be able to apply until these responses are completed. In 2026, payments will be issued through the Benevity disbursement process. Organizations are encouraged to register for electronic funds transfer in their cause profile to ensure timely disbursements and to avoid lost checks.
