Foundation grants are limited to agencies and organizations located in and serving the Greater Greensboro area. Grant decisions are generally made on a quarterly basis at our regular Board of Directors meetings. While we do not accept uninvited grant applications, we will accept letters of inquiry and we are happy to discuss our interests with organizations that meet the basic guidelines.
We have no bias for or against any particular grant type. We will support endowment funds, capital campaigns, facilities and construction funds, new initiatives, special projects and general operating expenses.
The Foundation avoids creating any expectation of long-term support; however, this does not preclude multi-year funding commitments when appropriate.
Weaver Foundation staff seek out programs that further the Foundation’s mission to make a positive difference in the community.
