Common questions
Which foundations give to nonprofits in Alcoa, Tennessee?
Care Foundation of America Inc Two Brentwood Commons, Arconic Foundation, Charles and Sue Fouche Charitable Foundation, Lpr Foundation Inc, The Clayton Homes Foundation and 11 others reported grants to Alcoa 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 Alcoa. Community foundations and corporate giving programs file different forms and are not included yet.
