Common questions
Which foundations give to nonprofits in Chickamauga, Georgia?
Frank P Pierce Foundation Inc, The Daniel Ashley and Irene Houston Jewell Memorial Foundation, Arthur E & Roberta M Yates Crut, The Jim Andrews Family Foundation Inc, Peach State Fcu Cares Foundation Inc and 2 others reported grants to Chickamauga 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.
