Common questions
Which foundations give to nonprofits in Long Beach, New Jersey?
The Essex Avenue Foundation, Isaac J Chehebar Charitable Trust Isaac J Chehebar Trustee, Victoria a Young Charitable Foundation Inc, The John J Pohanka Family Foundation, The Walter Blaine Foundation and 5 others reported grants to Long Beach 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?
