Common questions
Which foundations give to nonprofits in Chestnut, New York?
Shisu Foundation Inc C/O Sherer, The Roe Foundation Inc C/O Pan Am Equities Inc, The Trunk Is Up Inc C/O Pan Am Equities Inc reported grants to Chestnut 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.
