About The Grant
The Dominion Energy Charitable Foundation grants are distributed in four focus areas (human needs, environmental stewardship, education, community vitality) and are limited to organizations defined as tax-exempt under Section 501(c)(3) of the IRS code.

-Basic human needs grants that support increased food security, housing and shelter, and access to health care.
-Community vitality grants to foster an appreciation of diversity, revitalize neighborhoods and ensure a vibrant community life through support of cultural endeavors.
-Education grants to develop the capacity of the future workforce, especially in STEM and energy fields.
-Environmental stewardship grants to protect natural resources and help make efficient use of energy.
Most grant awards range from $1,000 to $15,000, while higher amounts may be awarded when a program is an exceptional fit. We often receive funding requests far in excess of our Foundation budget. Regrettably we must often decline support for otherwise worthy proposals. Such a response does not reflect on Dominion Energy's view of the value of the organization or its services.
