From American Lung Association
Who can apply: Applicants must be authorized to work in the United States and employed by a U.S. not-for-profit institution. Applicants may submit only one application or LOI per review cycle.
From Skidmore Owings & Merrill Foundation
Who can apply: Open to faculty currently teaching at a professionally accredited bachelor's, master's, or PhD program in architecture, landscape architecture, interior architecture, urban design, or engineering in the United States. Research must be developed in an institutional studio or seminar, with interdisciplinary collaboration and student engagement. SOM Foundation affiliated members, SOM employees, and faculty from previously awarded proposals are ineligible.
Who can apply: Applicants must be 501(c)(3) public charities registered with the Oregon Department of Justice, government entities, churches, federally recognized tribes, or organizations using a qualified 501(c)(3) fiscal sponsor. Spring 2027 competitive organizations include small rural Oregon organizations, culturally specific organizations, and culturally responsive organizations. Organizations that received a Community Grant in spring or fall 2026 are not eligible for the Spring 2027 cycle.
From Willard L Eccles Charitable Foundation
Who can apply: Applicants must be nonprofit organizations; the foundation cannot grant money to individuals. The majority of giving is in Utah, and most grants go to organizations the foundation has supported in the past. The foundation seeks projects aligned with its core interest areas, especially healthcare-related projects and projects that can address multiple interest areas.
Who can apply: Applications are accepted from tax-exempt agencies, schools, and governmental entities. No grants are made to individuals. Funded programs, projects, or services must benefit residents of Jackson and/or Josephine Counties, even if the applicant is located elsewhere. Organizations generally may apply no more than once in a twelve-month period. Fiscal-sponsor applicants must contact the Program Officer before applying. The Foundation rarely makes multi-year grants, grants for historical applications, hospital construction or equipment, group or individual trips, or grants for religious activities.
From American Public Power Association
Who can apply: Applications are open to DEED member organizations. Public power utilities, joint action agencies, state and regional associations, and federal service contractors that are APPA members are eligible to join DEED.
