Grants
We focus in land conservation and artistic vitality in two geographic regions.
We work collaboratively with grantees to create lasting results. Because some issues are complex, we are prepared to work on them over several years.
Before you submit a proposal
We recommend you review the Programs section to ensure your proposal is relevant to our mission and regions. Because our guidelines and application forms vary by program and geographic area, carefully review the grant guidelines for Artistic Vitality and Land Conservation. We do not accept letters of intent (LOIs), so please call if you have any questions before submitting a complete proposal.
