Organization and Project Narrative (82 KB) Financial Attachments Instructions (181 KB) Attachments Checklist (265 KB) General Operating and Project Specific Requests The Foundation prefers to give general operating support grants whenever possible. We trust our grantees to make the best decisions about their own resources and hope to provide as much flexibility as possible.
While most of the Foundation’s grants are for general operating support, there are some instances when project-specific requests are more appropriate. This includes national organizations with local affiliations, large institutions such as universities and hospitals, as well as other organizations that would like to restrict their grant to support a specific need.
If you are unsure if the organization should apply for general operating or project-specific support, please contact the Foundation. Capital support applications are now invitation-only. If your organization wishes to apply for capital support, please reach out to your program officer to discuss your request.
After someone from the organization has spoken to a member of the Foundation’s staff and has been approved to apply for capital support, you will be invited to complete the capital support application.
