About The Grant

Harry Chapin Foundation supports organizations that have demonstrated their ability to dramatically improve the lives and livelihood of people by helping them to become self-sufficient.


We will fund only 501(c)(3) not-for-profit programs that operate in the United States that fall within the areas of:


  • Arts-In-Education Programs

  • Community Education Programs

  • Agricultural and Environmental Programs


All applications must include a mailing address, a contact phone and email address, otherwise the application will not be able to be processed.


We make grants covering a one-year period. In some instances, grant renewals are considered but are never automatic. The applicant for a renewal grant must submit a new proposal each year, along with a report of the activities of the preceding year.


The Foundation accepts applications nationally from 501(c)(3) organizations in the United States. An application should be made in a brief written proposal to Executive Director Mike Grayeb.


Please make your application realistic. Do not inflate your request anticipating that you will get less than you requested. While we sometimes offer a smaller grant, it is also possible that we would not fund a request if we were unable to meet your stated needs.

Requirements

  • The Foundation mostly focuses on giving grants to grassroots organizations with an annual budget cap of $750,000 or less. 


  • Organizations must maintain an IRS 501(c)(3) classification. 


  • The Foundation cannot fund organizations that use a Fiscal Agent. 


  • It must be understood at the time of the application that if you are awarded a grant, we will request a short report on how the grant money was used within six (6) months after the grant is awarded.
