Grant Requests

The Foundation is primarily focused on art, music, drama, and environmental education, and supports organizations providing exposure to those fields of performance and study. The Foundation provides single time, transformative grants-for endowments, capital campaigns, multi-use materials, etc. The Foundation is focused on the Pacific Northwest as its primary funding area.

Organizations submitting a request for grant consideration by the Foundation are encouraged to explore matching grants between the Foundation and the community, or another charity. To consider and highlight any child/young adult/ adult related programs that would be supported or enhanced by the funds. To discuss the transformative effect that a grant could have on your program, and how it would be administered or applied.

The Foundation is interested in working with non-profits that are creative, open to discussion about their projects, and energized by their mission. Please be aware that the Foundation only makes grants to organizations that qualify as a “nonprofit organization” per the IRS, (and have an IRS nonprofit Tax EIN) or operate under the fiscal sponsorship of a qualifying nonprofit organization.
