Common questions
Which foundations give to nonprofits in Emlenton, Pennsylvania?
Arthur W Phillips Trust UW, Fair Frederick&ellen Memorial, Sutton Gertrude H - Tr UW, Kelley Marian J - Mem Tr, Kerr Mary Jane Weir - UW and 12 others reported grants to Emlenton 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 Emlenton. Community foundations and corporate giving programs file different forms and are not included yet.
