About The Grant
The Teichert Foundation supports nonprofit organizations and public agencies that strengthen and improve the local communities where Teichert operates.
Teichert Foundation will consider grant requests in the following categories:
Civic improvement
Community and social services
Culture and the arts
Education and workforce development
Environmental sustainability
Rehabilitation and health service
Youth and elderly
The geographic reach of the Foundation coincides generally with the areas in which Teichert Construction and Teichert Aggregates do business. To be eligible for funding, an agency and program must both be within the geographic scope of interest, though it is not required that the particular program seeking support be in the same county as the main agency office. This means that we unfortunately do not fund programs originating from an out-of-area agency, even if those programs take place in a local area.
Currently, agencies in the following counties are eligible to apply for Teichert Foundation grants:
Alameda
Alpine
Amador
Butte
Calaveras
Colusa
Contra Costa
El Dorado
Fresno
Madera
Mariposa
Merced
Monterey
Nevada
Placer
Sacramento
San Benito
San Bernardino
San Diego
San Joaquin
San Mateo
Santa Clara
Solano
Stanislaus
Sutter
Tuolumne
Tulare
Washoe
Yolo
Yuba
The Foundation looks for the following:
The number of people that will benefit from the project
The number of local volunteers supporting the organization and the project
The extent to which the applicant complements the services of other community organizations
The extent to which the program addresses underlying causes, rather than just symptoms of specific problems
The outcomes of monitoring and evaluating the organizations projects
The commitment and composition of the organization’s Board of Directors or Board of Trustees
The current budget and the prior year actuals to show the organization’s fiscal responsibility and management qualifications; and
The ability of the organization to provide ongoing funding after the term of the grant
-Grant requests for specific purposes are usually preferable to those for normal operating expenses.
-Grants are generally made for one year only.
