How To Apply

Open Grants

There are no Open Grants at this time.

Who Can Apply?

The following funding parameters are intended as general guidelines. We encourage prospective grantees to talk about their projects with our staff if you have questions about eligibility for funding.

Not-for-profit organizations may apply that:
  • Can show proof that the Internal Revenue Service currently recognizes them as a 501(c)(3).
  • Are able to produce audited financial statements.
  • Propose a project that falls unto one of our strategic area of focus.
  • Operate within Genesee, Livingston, Monroe, Ontario, Orleans, Seneca, Wayne, Wyoming, or Yates counties.
  • Can demonstrate financial need.
Allowable costs include the following:
  • Capital costs or equipment purchases will be evaluated for the program components, based upon the evaluation metrics set forth in the requests for proposals (RFPs).
  • Indirect costs that are integral to the infrastructure of the organization and necessary to ensure a viable organization, but are not directly related to the grant may be considered for funding. This could include rent, utilities, wages for administrative staff, office supplies, telephone service, and equipment. The Health Foundation will consider paying indirect costs up to 15 percent of the total grant’s direct costs.

Our Funds

We typically receive more requests for funding than we have money to fulfill. The amount of funds being requested should be appropriate for the number of people to be served and the measurable outcomes you intend to achieve over the length of time you propose, usually one to three years. The amount of money available each year depends upon the return we receive on our investments.
