We prioritize innovative, creative ideas with strong potential for social impact.\n\n## 2026 Grant Cycle\n\n**Beginning in 2026, Giving Joy will move to two global grant cycles per year.**\n\nAfter running multiple regional rounds, we learned that four cycles created unnecessary complexity and stretched our small team and volunteer reviewers. To ensure a fair, smooth, and high-quality experience for applicants, and to strengthen our own operations, we are simplifying the process.\n\nThis new structure will allow us to:\n\n- Provide clearer timelines for applicants\n\n- Increase the quality and depth of application reviews\n\n- Reduce administrative burden so we can better support grantees\n\n- Focus our communications and fundraising more effectively\n\n- Continue reaching women entrepreneurs in all regions without dividing by geography\n\n\nUnder the new model, **_each cycle is open to women entrepreneurs worldwide._**\n\n* * *\n\n## 2026 Grant Cycle Timeline\n\n### Cycle 1 – Spring 2026 NOW CLOSED\n\n- **Applications Open:** April 1, 2026\n\n- **Applications Close:** April 30, 2026 at 11:59pm (EST)\n\n- **Awards Announced:** August 2026\n\n\n- We received **6,423 applications** from women entrepreneurs around the world.\n\n- Giving Joy awarded **10 microgrants** during this round.\n\n\n* * *\n\n### Cycle 2 – Fall 2026 - OPEN SEPTEMBER 1\n\n- Below is the timeline for the September 2026 Microgrant Round:\n\n  - **Applications Open:** September 1, 2026\n\n  - **Applications Close:** September 30, 2026\n\n  - **Review Period:** October 1 – November 30, 2026.

The Foundation aims to support organizations and programs for which a relatively small amount of funding might make a large difference. The Foundation will consider requests to support museums, cultural and performing arts programs; schools and hospitals; educational, skills-training and other programs for youth, seniors, and persons with disabilities; environmental and wildlife protection activities; and other community-based organizations and programs. Awards typically range from $1,000 to $20,000. The Foundation cannot make grants to individuals.\n​\n​\nApplication Requirements\n​\nOur application requires organization and contact information, answers to questions related to your organization's non-profit status, answers to questions related to past awards/requests,  a summary of your organization's purpose and programs, a summary of how potential funding would be utilized, a letter of request, your organization's most recent 990, an itemized program budget (for organizations applying for program support), and a copy of your organization's IRS letter stating your Section 501(c)(3) tax-exempt/ not a private foundation status.\n​\nShould your request be selected for further consideration additional financial information may be required.\n​\nDetails\n​\nSummaries:\nOur application requires two summaries: one of your organization's purpose and the population it serves, and one regarding how potential funding would be utilized and the population it might serve. Because the Foundation receives a large number of requests in relation to our size, these summaries act as your \"elevator pitch,\" providing the basis for further examination of the attached letter of request. Your summaries should be straightforward and concise. Our Directors should have a basic understanding of your organization's purpose, service population, and programming based solely on these summaries-\nindependent of your three-page letter of request\n. Summaries that are vague or obscured by jargon, and/or those built around an organization's aims or goals without substance, may not be considered. Examples of well- and poorly-executed summaries may be found on the\nSummary Example\npage.\n​\nLetter of Request:\nThe letter of request serves as an opportunity to reiterate, elaborate, and expand on the information you have included in your summaries. Your letter of request should further detail your organization's purpose and how its aims are executed through its programming. The Foundation is also interested in the aspects that make your organization unique in relation to other, similar organizations, whether that be through programming, population served, or execution.\nWe ask that your request be formatted as plainly as possible- utilizing a common font and single spacing. Pictures, graphs, charts and additional materials such as newsletters, pamphlets, reports, etc. should not be embedded in the letter of request or included as part of any attachment. Our decisions are made solely based on the content specifically requested by the Foundation. Your organization's name, contact, contact title, organization's address, grant's purpose, and the amount requested should be included in the upper left of the LOR as follows:\n​\nOrganization: The Percheron Foundation, Inc. (DBA: Percheron)\nContact: Jane Smith\nPosition: Executive Director\nAddress: 1421 Spring St., Suite A Minneapolis, MN 55405\nGrant Purpose: The Percheron After School Program\nFunding Request: $5,000\n​\nAttachments:\nThe letter of request, most recent 990, program budget (if required), and 501(c)3 determination letter will need to be uploaded as .PDF attachments.\n​\nInstructions\n​\nClick the Application Portal button at the bottom of the page to access our Application Portal. The Application Portal can be used to create an application, check status updates for existing requests, update contact information, submit reports, and view past applications. New users will be prompted to sign-up and create an Organization Profile for their organization. All aspects and features of the portal are connected back to this Organization Profile. Organizations are expected to maintain one organization profile. Duplicate organization profiles, and any applications attached, will be deleted upon discovery and without notification. If you are unsure whether or not your organization already has a profile in our portal please contact the info account listed below.\n​\nWhen signing up please be aware that the login email address chosen cannot be changed by the user at a later point. Because organizations are expected to maintain one organization profile we ask that organizations use a general email address that can be accessed by multiple people within the organization for the login email address and not an address tied to a single person. The login email address is used strictly for logging in and, when necessary, updating the password. It does not need to be the same as the contact email address which is entered at a later point and can be updated by those with access at any time.\nOnce your Organization Profile is created you will be able to begin work on your application. Work on your application will be saved automatically every five minutes. You may also save your work manually. Be aware you will not be prompted to complete your request in the event it remains incomplete as the deadline date approaches. Once submitted you will not be able to make changes to your application. Please ensure the information and attachments you've included are correct and accurate before submitting. Due to the volume of requests we receive, we will not be able to contact organizations to request corrections. Once your application is completed and submitted, you will receive an automated email confirming your application has been received.\n​\nFor information on the Foundation's timeline and deadlines, please refer to the\nTimeline and Deadlines\npage.\n​\nQuestions\n​\nIf you have any questions regarding the Foundation, its priorities, feedback, requirements, etc. please refer to the\nFAQ\npage. If your question remains unanswered after reviewing our FAQ page, you are welcome to contact the Foundation by email:\ninfo@mvdreyfusfoundation.org\nor phone: (202) 337-3300.\n​\n​\n​\n​\n​\n​\n​\nAPPLICATION PORTAL\nThe Max and Victoria Dreyfus Foundation\nbottom of page\n\nSource: https://www.mvdreyfusfoundation.org/faq\nFAQ | mysite\ntop of page\nHome\nApplication\nTimeline and Deadlines\nSummary Examples\nFAQ\nFrequently Asked Questions\nOur FAQ page is currently separated into two sections:\n​\n1) Frequently asked questions in relation to\nGeneral Considerations\nincluding priorities, eligibility, and feedback.\n2) Frequently asked questions in relation to the\nApplication Portal\n​\n​\nGeneral FAQ\n​\n1. Are your grants limited to a particular geographic area?\nThe Foundation makes grants to non-profit organizations across the United States. The Foundation does not establish geographical preferences within the United States. The Foundation can also consider requests for organizations based in the United States but whose programming takes place abroad, as well as requests from organizations located in U.S. Territories. The Foundation cannot consider requests from organizations that are not based in the United States.\n​\n​\n2. Does the Foundation give grants for operating support?\nThe Foundation does award funding for operating support, as well as for specific projects or activities of an organization. The Foundation does not have a preference between program and operating support.\n​\n​\n3. What are the Foundation's funding priorities for this year/ would you recommend I apply for X program or Y program?\nThe Foundation does not establish funding priorities on an annual basis, but rather supports worthwhile activities for which an organization has made a compelling case to receive funding. As a result, Foundation staff cannot advise applicants on the appropriateness of one potential submission over another. Instead, we generally suggest that organizations select programs for which they can make their best case for support, and for which a small amount of money can have a large impact.\n​\nExamples of the Foundation's general areas of interest may be found on the Application Page however, the Foundation will consider applications from any 501(c)3 based in the United States of America for which a relatively small amount of funding might make a large difference.\n​\n​\n4. Is it possible to meet/have a quick phone call with someone at the Foundation?\nUnfortunately, no. The volume of requests we receive in relation to the size of the Foundation's staff makes it impossible to allocate equal time. The best case for support can be made within the application. If you have a question that is not addressed within the guidelines, application portal, or these FAQs please email:\ninfo@mvdreyfusfoundation.org\n​\n​\n5. Can we receive feedback on our application?\nUnfortunately, no. Due to the number of requests received for each round of grants, we are unable to provide feedback on individual requests.\n​\n​\n6. If our application is accepted, will we be asked to submit a full proposal/Do you require a Letter of Interest?\nNo. All narrative information in regard to your Foundation and its programs are collected in the initial application.\n​\nThe Foundation does not require or consider letters of interest or letters of introduction. Due to the number of communications the Foundation receives, we may not respond to letters of interest/letters of introduction.\n​\n​\n7. Will the Foundation consider emergency grants?\nThe Foundation cannot make emergency grants.\n​\n​\n8. How many applicants applied during last cycle? What percentage were successful?\nThe Foundation has no interest in tracking or providing this information; not believing it to be beneficial to either party.\n​\n​\n9. Can my organization submit an application under a fiscal sponsor?\nYes.\nWhen creating the organization profile, write your organization's name in the \"Organization's Legal Name\" field and the name of your fiscal sponsor in the \"DBA\" field. Enter your own EIN, not your fiscal sponsor's.\nIn the application, mark \"No\" to the question \"Is your organization a 501c3 organization?\". Select \"applying through a fiscal sponsor\" and enter the name of your fiscal sponsor.\nUnder attachments, attach your fiscal sponsor's most recent 990 and their 501c3 determination letter.\n​\n​\n10. Can publicly supported organizations, such as schools or local government institutions, for which a 501(c)3 determination is not appropriate, apply for funding?\nYes, requests from publicly supported organizations can be considered.\nMark \"No\" to the question \"Is your organization a 501c3 organization?\" on the application. Select \"on behalf of a publicly-supported organization such as a school university or government entity\".\nIn lieu of a 501(c)3 determination letter we require a signed statement from a senior administrator as to the organization's means of support.\n​\nIn lieu of a 990, instead attach your organization's most recent operating budget. Organizations that have not uploaded an operating budget will be automatically disqualified.\n​\n​\n​\n​\n​\n12. My 501c3 organization does not yet have a completed 990, can we still apply?\nNo. The Foundation requires organizations identifying themselves as 501c3 organizations to provide at least one completed 990 to apply. If you have marked \"Yes\" to the question \"Is your organization a 501c3 organization?\" in the application and do not upload a 990, your organization will be automatically disqualified. We require all materials be uploaded at the time of submission and will not accept items later by email.\n​\n​\n13. Are 990-N/postcard 990s acceptable?\nYes.\n​\n​\n14. My organization is not required to file 990s, can we still apply?\nPublicly supported organizations, such as schools, libraries or other local government institutions and faith-based organizations that are not required to file 990s can still apply. Individuals and businesses (LLCs) may not. Publicly supported organizations can follow the instructions on item 10. Faith-based organizations that are 501c3 should mark \"Yes\" to the question\nIs your organization a 501c3 organization?\" on the application.\n​\nIn lieu of the 990, instead attach your organization's most recent operating budget with actual income and expenses. Organizations that have not uploaded an operating budget will be automatically disqualified.\n​\n​\n15. Can my application include indirect costs and if so, up to what percentage?\nThe Foundation does not have a specific policy regarding indirect costs or their percentage. Requests containing indirect costs will be considered on a case-by-case basis. Because the vast majority of organizations applying for funding are not required to include indirect costs in their request, we recommend keeping any required indirect costs as low as possible.\n​\n​\n16. How much funding do you recommend a first-time applicant apply for?\nThe Foundation does not recommend a specific amount for first-time, or any other, applicant. However, we do expect the requested amount fall within our typical giving range ($1,000-$20,000) and relate sensibly to the grants' intended purpose, as well as the organization's budget/s. Be aware that in an effort to support as many worthwhile\norganizations and programs as possible, the Foundation may choose to award an amount less than the amount requested by an organization.\n​\n​\n17. Can we apply for multiple years of funding in one application?\nNo. The Foundation will not commit to or consider applications for multiple years of funding.\n​\n​\n18. Is there a timeframe for which grant funds must be used once received?\nOrganizations are expected to have expended their grant award within one year from the date it was received.\n​\n​\n19. Does the Foundation have reporting requirements?\nYes. Awarded organizations must submit a brief, narrative report on the use of funds within six-months to one-year from the date it was received. A copy of our report guidelines are included with our award packets.\n​\n​\nApplication Portal FAQ\n​\n1. To whom can I address the Letter of Request?\nYour LOR may be addressed to Mary P. Surrey, the Foundation's President.\n​\n​\n2. How do I change our organization's login email address?\nThis change cannot be made by the user. Please contact the Foundation at\ninfo@mvdreyfusfoundation.org\nwith a request to change your login email. The Foundation will not change the login email address from one personal address to another. We\nwill require a general email address, such as an info account, that can be accessed by multiple users within the organization.\n​\n​\n3. Can I create a new organization profile if I'm unsure whether or not my organization has one already?\nYou should not create a new organization profile unless you are positive your organization does not already have one. To keep\nongoing records for the sake of both the foundation and your organization, organizations are expected to use and maintain one\norganization profile. There is no way to combine organization profiles. Duplicate organization profiles will be deleted upon discovery, without notification, including any applications connected to it.\n​\n​\n4. How can I check if my organization already has on organization profile on the portal?\nOrganizations are expected to maintain their own records however, in the event you need to check, you may email\ninfo@mvdreyfusfoundation.org\nto ask.\n​\n​\nGeneral FAQ\nThe Max and Victoria Dreyfus Foundation\nPortal FAQ\nbottom of page\n\nSource: https://www.mvdreyfusfoundation.org/contact\nTIMELINE AND DEADLINES | mysite\ntop of page\nHome\nApplication\nTimeline and Deadlines\nSummary Examples\nFAQ\nThe Max and Victoria Dreyfus Foundation\nTimeline & Deadlines\nTimeline & Deadlines\n​\nThe Foundation makes awards twice a year, once during our\nSpring Award Round\nand once during our\nFall Award Round\n. The following timeline and deadlines have remained in place since 2013:\n​\nRequests received between May 11th (12:00am EST) and November 10th (11:59pm EST) are considered for funding during our\nSpring Award Round\n. All applicants who submit a request during this timeframe can expect to have received a status update, by email, by the end of April. Those who are selected for further consideration can expect to receive a final decision, by mail, by the end of May.\n​\nRequests received between November 11th (12:00am EST) and May 10th (11:59pm EST) are considered for funding during the\nFall\nAward\nRound\n. All applicants who submit a request during this timeframe can expect to receive a status update, by email, by the end of October. Those who have been selected for further consideration can expect to receive a final decision, by mail, by the end of November.\nIn those instances when the deadline date falls on a weekend or federal holiday (Memorial Day or Veterans Day), the deadline shall move to the next business day.  (ex. If November 10th is a Saturday and Monday, November 12th is Veterans Day, the deadline that year would be Tuesday, November 13th)\n​\nApplicants may\nnot\nsubmit requests for consecutive grant rounds (Spring/Fall or Fall/Spring). Applicants\nmay\nsubmit requests for the same grant round in a different year (Fall 2020, Fall 2021). Applicants may\nnot\nsubmit multiple requests during one grant round.\n​\nBecause the Foundation accepts requests over a six-month period for each Award Round, the Foundation will not make any exceptions for late requests- in fairness to applicants that have submitted well-ahead of the deadline date. No weight is given based on when an application is submitted. We recommend applicants submit their application\nat least\none week before the deadline date to account for any potential, though unlikely, errors.\n​\nApplicants can check for status updates through the Application Portal. We ask that organizations\ndo not\ncontact the Foundation to request status updates unless they have\nnot\nreceived an update within the timeframes cited above.\n​\nbottom of page","provenance":{"publisher":"The Max and Victoria Dreyfus Foundation","reviewNote":"Public current-round guidance only; no applicant eligibility decision, portal account, application or private organization information.

The organization must complete the payment set up within 21 days of the date of that email; failure to do so will be deemed a rejection, and the grant offer will be withdrawn.\nApproval is expressly conditioned on the organization’s agreement to the logo usage and recognition guidelines and its affirmation that it aligns with the Spark Good local grant guidelines.\nAll grant applications are subject to review of the organization’s reputation and activities and its agreement to comply with applicable terms and conditions. Submission of an application does not guarantee funding.

If you can fill out the application form, you can apply.\nWill you support my project?\nThe only way to find out for sure if a chapter will support your project is to apply — it doesn't take long! Still, while every chapter is different, some types of projects are generally not supported — typically ones that are personal and limited in their community impact, and existing efforts that would not see significant incremental benefit from a small grant.\nWhich chapter should I apply to?\nMost chapters show a strong preference for projects that contribute to their own communities, though some occasionally consider applications from further afield. Try to\napply to a chapter near you\n, in a location where you have roots, or that you think would have a particular interest your idea.\nCan I apply to more than one chapter?\nYes, if you think more than one chapter might be interested in your idea. However, we'd encourage you to mention in your applications which other chapter or chapters you've applied to.\nWhen will I hear back?\nMost chapters meet monthly to review applications and decide on a recipient — though some chapters make decisions at live \"pitch\" events open to the public. If you haven't heard anything within a few months of applying, it's likely your project was not selected. Most chapters continue to consider applications from previous months, however, so there's no need to apply again unless your idea has changed.\n","provenance":{"publisher":"Awesome Foundation","reviewNote":"Austin chapter and network FAQ reread September 7; original source excerpts still supported.

Eligible organizations may submit an inquiry via the\nMoody Foundation Grant Inquiry Form\n. After a brief eligibility quiz, applicants will outline their organization and proposed project on the form with a brief description, estimated total budget, and amount requested of the Moody Foundation.\nOnly one inquiry per organization will be considered at any given time. If your organization would like to submit more than one project for review, please note your organization’s priority project or program.\nIf an inquiry and project is to receive further consideration, you will be sent a full grant application by a member of our grants team. Once an application is finalized and submitted, we conduct a detailed compliance review.\nEligible applications are presented to the Foundation’s trustees for consideration at one of four regular meetings held each year. The exact timetable for an application’s progress is dependent on several factors and the process does not begin until receipt of all application materials. It is common for the grant application process from inquiry to funding decision to take up to six months, so please consider this timeframe in determining what projects you propose.\nOrganizations are only allowed one active grant at a time unless an exception has been discussed with Moody Foundation staff.\nNew grant inquiries and requests (by existing grantees) will not be accepted until a final report from an organization’s previous project has been submitted, unless otherwise discussed with Foundation staff.\nGrants Portal\nAll inquiries are submitted via our\nonline Grants Portal.\nIf you are submitting an inquiry to the Moody Foundation for the first time (or are an existing grantee submitting a new proposal after 4/1/25), you will be required to set up an account within the grantee portal.\nQuestions? Please visit our FAQ page\nhere.\nApplication Approved\nIf your grant application is approved, you will be asked to sign the Foundation’s standard grant agreement, which will include information about managing your grant, such as if and when any reports are due.\n\nOfficial standard/regional FAQ: https://moodyf.org/grant-faq/\nThese FAQs apply to the Foundation’s standard/regional grant process. Please see the\nM-Pact Fund webpage\nfor its dedicated guidelines and FAQs.\nChances are you’re not the first to ask.\nWho is eligible to apply for funding\nOrganizations applying for funding must meet the following requirements:\nMust be an eligible grant recipient, which means an organization that is either:\na registered tax-exempt 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization classified as a public charity,\na governmental or public entity (e.g., a municipality, health department, or university/school),\ncertain types of supporting organizations under Section 509(a)(3), or\na private operating foundation.\nAll grant funds must be expended within the state of Texas. Organizations formed in another jurisdiction must be registered with and authorized to do business in Texas through the Texas Secretary of State.\nThe Foundation will\nnot\nconsider grants to the following types of organizations or for the following purposes:\nPrivate foundations that are not private operating foundations, or\nPolitical organizations, political candidates, lobbyists or related organizations.\nWhat types of projects are typically funded by the Moody Foundation?\nThe Moody Foundation proudly supports organizations of all sizes—from large-scale institutions and universities to small community-based groups. In short, the Foundation aims to support organizations who are dedicated to making a deep and sustained impact in their communities. While the Foundation prefers to make grants for specific programs or projects, the Foundation will consider most types of funding requests (including general operating, program, and capital).\nThe Foundation is currently focusing on grants that are in line with the following key areas of giving: education, social services and family well-being, health and wellness, and the arts. However, the Foundation maintains broad flexibility in grantmaking, both geographically and categorically within Texas, which allows timely responses to community needs and concerns.\nYou can find the Foundation’s recently awarded grants\nhere\n, to review past approved applications.\nWhat regions are typically funded?\nThe Moody Foundation funds projects state-wide, with a key focus on Galveston, Austin, and Dallas. The Foundation gives special attention to rural areas that have less access to philanthropic funding.\nWhen may an organization apply for funding?\nThe Moody Foundation welcomes inquiries throughout the year. Eligible inquiries and applications are presented to the Foundation’s trustees for consideration at one of four regular meetings held each year. The exact timetable for an application’s progress is dependent on several factors and the process does not begin until the application and all related materials are uploaded into the portal. As stated below, while our grants team works hard to efficiently work through all inquiries, it is common for the grant application process from initial inquiry to a funding decision to take up to twelve months, so please consider this timeframe in determining what projects you propose.\nWhat types of projects do not typically receive funding from the Moody Foundation?\nThe Foundation is currently focusing on grants that are in line with following key areas of giving: education, social services and family well-being, health and wellness, and the arts. However, the Foundation maintains broad flexibility in grantmaking, both geographically and categorically within Texas, which allows timely responses to community needs and concerns.\nThe Foundation will\nnot\nconsider grants to the following types of organizations or for the following purposes:\nPrivate foundations that are not private operating foundations, or\nPolitical organizations, political candidates, lobbyists or related organizations.\nDoes the Moody Foundation make multi-year grants?\nOn occasion, the Foundation may award multi-year grant support for a project, or make multi-year payments on awards. Generally, however, grants are awarded for one year at a time.\nGrants are considered individually and no grant award should be construed as a precedent for subsequent gifts.\nHow do I apply for a grant?\nEligible organizations may apply via the Foundation’s\nonline Grants Portal\n.  You may submit only one (1) project at a time for consideration. Incomplete grant inquiries not fully submitted within three (3) months will be automatically deleted.\nIf your inquiry is to receive further consideration, you will be sent an email from\n[email protected]\nwith a link to complete a full grant application.  Please check your spam folders or add that email address to your SafeSenders or whitelist.\nYou will be notified by email if your inquiry has not been selected to receive further consideration.\nIf you would like to apply for the M-Pact Fund, visit the dedicated webpage\nhere\n.\nWhat amount should I ask for?\nMany factors influence the size of grant awards, including the size and scale of the organization and its budget; the age and maturity of the organization; prior relationship with the organization; program area, etc. To identify an appropriate request level, the Foundation recommends that you review the Foundation's recently awarded grants\nhere\n.\nIt will be beneficial for the applicant to identify additional funding sources and/or how the project is and will be sustainable post-Moody funding.\nShould we wait to hear from you before reaching out to other funders?\nNo. It is a good idea to submit applications to multiple sources of funding to improve your overall chances of success.\nHow long does the entire grant process take?\nWhile our grants team works hard to efficiently work through all grant inquiries, it is common for the grant application process from initial inquiry to a funding decision to take up to twelve (12) months, so please consider this timeframe in determining what projects you propose.\nHow will I know if my grant request has been received?\nAfter submitting a grant inquiry through the portal, you will receive an automated email from\n[email protected]\nconfirming the successful submission of your inquiry.\nI've received a formal application link, now what?\nFollow the instructions in the email to access the grant application. Once your application has been submitted, it will be reviewed by the grants team and, once the application is complete, presented to the Trustees at one of the four regular meetings during the year. You will receive a letter shortly after the meeting notifying you of the Trustee’s decision. If approved, funding will be awarded shortly after receipt of a fully executed grant contract and requested funding instructions.\nRequirements to submit as part of your application include, but are not limited to:\nCover Letter\nIRS Determination Letter\nForm 990\nCurrent Operating Budget\nProjected Operating Budget\nAudited Financial Statement\n*if relevant\nBoard of Directors List\nSupport Letters\nProject Budget\nWhat are the reporting requirements for funded grants?\nReporting requirements are detailed in a formal grant contract, but generally, The Moody Foundation requires that all funded organizations and projects submit an annual program report approximately 12-months after funding.   The report(s) will be available through the Grantee Portal.  The Foundation reserves the right to require additional reporting as it deems appropriate.  The reports are meant to highlight the impact of Foundation funding through your work.\nDo you fund scholarships?\nThe Moody Foundation funds scholarships through the Moody Scholars program.

We do not fund academic coursework\nM\nDonations on your behalf to a project that you are not affiliated with\nWhat do grant advisors look for?\nOur grantmaking team evaluates grant proposals based on their own experience working in a similar geographic or issue area.\nThey also consider:\n\nImpact of the project itself\n\nHow meaningfully seed funding will move the project forward, and how likely it is that the applicant can bridge any gaps between total funding needed versus what has currently been raised\n\nThe strength of the applicant’s connection to the community they want to serve\n\nWhat efforts the applicant has taken to maximize non-financial resources, such as recruiting volunteers or seeking in-kind donations\nWhat opportunities are available to me if I am funded by TPP?\nWe value relationship over transaction, and hope to walk beside you on your path long after your initial grant funding has been spent. In addition to one-time seed funding of up to $500, joining our global community of changemakers offers:\n\nThe opportunity to apply for other one-time funding opportunities that TPP may offer existing grantees\n\nCapacity-building support and connectivity with other changemakers within our global network\n\nOpportunities to have your work showcased to the broader TPP community through articles, social media, and/or video\n\nSupport in connecting with other funders and donors upon completion of initial\ngrant reporting\nFAQ’s\nCan I or my group/organization receive more than one seed grant from TPP?\nNo. Because our goal is to support as many grassroots changemakers as possible, we restrict the number of seed funding awards that any person, group, or project can receive. We no longer award multiple seed grants to any person or group even if the proposed work is completely distinct from their previously funded project.\nIf someone else in my group or organization has been funded by TPP for a project, can I or another member of that group or organization also request funding for the same project or for another project that we are working on together?\nNo. Even if you were not the original applicant for a previously funded project, if the work you seek funding for is operated by that same group you should not apply. This is the case whether it is for the same project as that which was originally funded OR if the work is different from the previous project.\nIs it appropriate for my co-leader, a volunteer, or another member of my group to request funding from TPP for different parts of the same project at the same time?\nNo. We can only accept a single application for any work, even if the applicants are different people. If a previous application was declined by TPP, then you or someone else may reapply. Still, you must tell us that a previous application was submitted for this work.\nMy proposal was not funded by TPP. Can I apply for funding more than once?\nYes, if your project design has changed and/or if you have made significant revisions to the original application. Please do not resubmit a proposal if you have not incorporated feedback the advisor team provided for your project design.\nMy project involves distributing food that contains animal products (e.g. a food bank), can I apply for a TPP grant so long as the grant does not pay for animal products?\nYes. We believe animal agriculture is cruel and environmentally destructive. However, we recognize that food banks and other groups are reliant on donations and can’t always choose the items they are able to distribute. We can pay for infrastructure costs such as shelving in projects of this kind.\nWe cannot pay directly for animal products, any activity which promotes the consumption of animal products, for projects focused on health and nutrition which include recommendations to consume animal products, or for any event at which animal products will be served.\nMy project involves distributing food that contains animal products (e.g. a food bank), can I apply for a TPP grant so long as the grant does not pay for animal products?\nYes.

Submit reporting which includes what you achieved, what you learned and how you spend the grant funds. Go to\nReporting Requirements\nfor details on what to include.\nTake photos or videos showcasing your project in action, and include these photos and videos in your project report.\nTrack your expenses and submit all receipts with your final report to show how you spent the grant funds.\nAllow your project to be highlighted, publicized and shared by The Pollination Project.\nMake your best effort to spend the money as you proposed. Follow the restrictions listed in your contract when spending the funds, and contact us before making any changes.\nIf you are a U.S. based grantee and you do not submit receipts and reporting for your grant, we are required to issue a 1099 form and report your grant as taxable income to the IRS.\nWhen is the grant application due and how long before I get a response?\nWe welcome applications on a rolling basis. Applications which are received in full before the final day of the month will be reviewed by our team during the following month and decisions will be shared with all applicants at the end of that month. For instance, if you submitted an application in full at any point in January, our team would review your application during the month of February and you would receive our grant decisions at the end of February/the first days of March.\nPlease note: by ‘received in full’ we include the successful submission of a reference for international applicants. Your application will be counted as received in the month in which your referee submits their reference.\n","provenance":{"publisher":"The Pollination Project","reviewNote":"Reviewed against official public source snapshots.
