Common questions

Which foundations give to nonprofits in Ocean Pines, Maryland?

Joan W Jenkins Foundation Inc, The Lancelotta Foundation Inc, Baxley Foundation, Broomfield Charitable Foundation, National Life Group Charitable Foundation Inc and 2 others reported grants to Ocean Pines 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.
