Common questions

Which foundations give to nonprofits in Talkeetna, Alaska?

Philippe and Ana Laffont Family Foundation C/O Coatue Management, Belvedere Charitable Foundation, Patagoniaorg, Evenor Fund, Richard L and Diane M Block Foundation and 6 others reported grants to Talkeetna organizations on their latest Form 990-PF.

How do I approach a foundation that doesn't accept applications?

A foundation that checks "contributes only to preselected organizations" on its 990-PF won't review a cold proposal. Look at who it funds, find a shared board member, grantee or advisor, and ask for an introduction. Foundations that accept applications usually list a contact and deadlines in Part XV; we show that text on each foundation's page.

Is this list complete?

No. It covers private foundations (Form 990-PF filers) whose latest electronic return lists at least one grant to an organization in Talkeetna. Community foundations and corporate giving programs file different forms and are not included yet.
