The Green Foundation

Established in 1994, the Green Foundation is a private, non-operating foundation that awards grants for both operating and program support. The foundation's mission is to uncover new opportunities, encourage growth, and ultimately effect positive change within those institutions that best reflect the foundation's core focus areas and the communitie... s they serve. Not-for-profit organizations are eligible to apply for funding in the following areas: arts; education; and health and scientific research. Most of the foundation's grantmaking is limited to institutions that serve the Los Angeles community; however, the foundation will consider institutions beyond this geographic boundary that have the potential to impact communities statewide or nationally. To be eligible for foundation funding, an applicant organization must be classified by the IRS as a public charity and tax exempt under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.Read More
