Which foundations give to nonprofits in Argos, Indiana?
The Wyn and Carol Laidig Foundation Inc Age, Bobbie and Stanton Cook Family Foundation, Hazel Dell Neff Smelser Scholarship Fund, Land O'Lakes Foundation reported grants to Argos 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.
