The Foundation awards three types of grants:
- seed funding for start-ups and demonstration programs aimed at finding innovative solutions to recalcitrant problems;
- support for ongoing projects that provide much-needed services; and
- capital grants that support new construction, renovation, purchase of property, and/or capital equipment.
Please note that the Foundation prefers not to fund ongoing operational expenses. It does not award grants to individuals, sponsorships, deficit financing, or travel.
