Common questions

Which foundations give to nonprofits in Young Harris, Georgia?

Tr W I H Pitts Memorial Fund, Tr Margaret Pitts Ua W Pitts, Tw L D McEachearn, Lettie Pate Evans Foundation Inc, The O Wayne Rollins Foundation C/O Rfa Management Co LLC and 26 others reported grants to Young Harris 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 Young Harris. Community foundations and corporate giving programs file different forms and are not included yet.
