My nonprofit received a grant last year. When can I re-apply?

Organizations that have received a grant from WF are eligible to re-apply annually, unless otherwise notified. Specific instructions are included in the grant guidelines for each fund.

Does the Foundation accept grant proposals from collaborative groups?

We invite collaboratives of all types to apply, including partnerships made up of several nonprofit organizations, schools, governmental entities, resident groups, or nonprofit and business partnerships. The application lead must be a 501(c)(3) organization or be fiscally-sponsored. That organization will assume fiduciary responsibility for the grant.

Who reviews my grant application?

Depending on the opportunity, various committees review and approve the grants, including donor selection committees and our Board of Directors.

When will I hear the outcome of my grant application?

The projected timelines for grant reviews and grant disbursements are included in the summary of the funding opportunity in the Grant Portal.
