Common questions
Which foundations give to nonprofits in Greenfield, California?
Karnell Foundation Inc, Nancy Buck Ransom Foundation, Rita & Luis Echenique Charitable Foundation, William and Renee Curtis Family Foundation reported grants to Greenfield 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.
