Common questions

Which foundations give to nonprofits in Williamstown, New Jersey?

Virginia Lee Cook Foundation, Louis Plansoen Fdn Co-Ttee, Elizabeth Vinton Sanderson Foundation, The Emma and Georgina Bloomberg Foundation, The Draper Foundation and 11 others reported grants to Williamstown 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 Williamstown. Community foundations and corporate giving programs file different forms and are not included yet.
