Common questions
Which foundations give to nonprofits in Wapakoneta, Ohio?
The Kleinhenz-Moeller Foundation, Ar-Hale Family Foundation Inc, Reichelderfer Kathryn Priv Fdn Oag #01-2346, Birtcher Family Foundation, The William G Pomeroy Foundation and 4 others reported grants to Wapakoneta 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.
