Common questions
Which foundations give to nonprofits in Worland, Wyoming?
The McMurry Foundation, The John P Ellbogen Foundation C/O Mary Garland, Thomas & Ellen Hogue Family Foundation Inc, Natrona Collective Health Trust, Tom & Helen Tonkin Foundation and 2 others reported grants to Worland 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?
