Common questions
Which foundations give to nonprofits in Lebanon, Virginia?
Thompson Charitable Foundation, Wellspring Foundation of Southwest Virginia, Peter and Ann Lambertus Family Foundatio C/O Bartlett Pc, The Keene Foundation, The Genan Foundation and 5 others reported grants to Lebanon 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 Lebanon. Community foundations and corporate giving programs file different forms and are not included yet.
