Common questions

Which foundations give to nonprofits in Stephens City, Virginia?

Elizabeth C Clark Foundation C/O John W Truban, Hittman Family Foundation Inc, The Charles F and Ruth J Knippenberg Foundation Inc, Shingleton Tuw, The Bank of Clarke County Foundation and 4 others reported grants to Stephens City 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 Stephens City. Community foundations and corporate giving programs file different forms and are not included yet.
