Common questions
Which foundations give to nonprofits in East Patchogue, New York?
Rk Mellon Family Foundation, Agler-Rice Family Foundation C/O Benjamin Rice, Ge Aerospace Foundation, The Okavango Private Foundation, Jjs Foundation Inc and 3 others reported grants to East Patchogue 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?
