Initial Grant Request

Getting Started

If you are a Massachusetts organization you can use this form to submit your initial request for a grant. We will in some cases consider organizations in ME/NH/VT as well. We are not accepting unsolicited proposals from Philadelphia organizations at this time.

Before you begin your on-line application, please have handy your organization's mission statement, EIN, 3-digit NTEE code, and (if available) URL for any Outcomes or Annual Report that is on-line. Please keep answers brief, and instead attach longer documents to this proposal.

If you have received a grant from us previously and your organization information remains unchanged, you can use the shorter Renewal Grant form instead. 

You can submit your initial request at any time. Deadline for submissions is the last business day of March for Spring consideration and the last business day of September for Fall consideration. We look forward to hearing from you!

* Submissions for Spring '25 are now closed. Applications you submit now will be considered for our Fall '25 cycle. Thanks! =

Otherwise, please upload in Attachments below.
