    About Windham Foundation

    The Windham Foundation Inc pairs Vermont community grants with operating work in Grafton, and its recent giving shows a strong local pattern: 86% of grants go to recipients in Vermont, and the foundation awards through both competitive and general grant programs. Its largest recent grant in the provided list was $40,205 to Cro Planning & Design in Burlington for general operating support, followed by repeated support for local institutions such as Grafton Public Library and Grace Cottage Hospital. The funding profile is broad within Vermont, but the recurring thread is support for organizations that serve civic life, cultural activity, food systems, and rural services. The foundation’s grantmaking also reaches beyond one-off projects. Recent awards include operating support for a teacher-training program at Flow of History Inc in Norwich, summer-series support for Next Stage Arts Project in Putney, and general support for Grafton-based community entities. That mix matches its stated purpose of enhancing economic, cultural, and civic life in Vermont through nonprofit grants, rural enterprises, and conferences on Vermont issues. The recent record shows a funder that uses relatively modest grants to support local organizations, infrastructure, and programming across the state.

    What Windham Foundation Funds

    In education, the foundation backed Flow of History Inc in Norwich with $20,000 in 2024 and $10,000 in 2023 for a teacher training program, and it also supported School for International Training in Brattleboro with $9,000 for academics and experiential learning. In arts and culture, it gave Next Stage Arts Project in Putney $14,500 in 2024 and $10,500 in 2025 for its summer series, and it awarded $12,000 to the Vermont Symphony Orchestra in Burlington for performance underwriting. Food systems and rural access are another visible thread. The foundation gave Vermont Foodbank in Barre $10,800 for food programs and Food Connects in Brattleboro $10,000 for expansion of refrigeration space. Conservation and land protection also appear in the recent grants list through South Hero Land Trust, which received multiple awards for land conservation programs.

    How Windham Foundation Gives

    The grant-size distribution is small to mid-sized: the 25th percentile is $1,000, the median is $2,930, and the 75th percentile is $5,000. The recent list still includes larger awards, but most grants cluster below $5,000. The Windham Foundation Inc gives through active programs, including biannual Spring and Fall grant cycles, and its materials describe competitive grants plus project grants and small local grants. Recipients do recur across years: several organizations appear in both 2023, 2024, and 2025, including Grafton Public Library, Grace Cottage Hospital, South Hero Land Trust, and Grafton Firemen's Assoc Inc. The foundation accepts unsolicited applications.

    Where Windham Foundation Makes Grants

    Giving is overwhelmingly in Vermont, with 86% of grants going to recipients in the home state and all recorded recipient countries in the dataset in the US. The recent grants list shows concentration in Burlington, Grafton, Brattleboro, Putney, Townshend, Norwich, and Montpelier, with additional awards in South Hero, Newfane, and Athens. Grafton appears repeatedly, reflecting the foundation’s local emphasis, while Burlington and Brattleboro anchor several of the larger awards.

    Frequently Asked Questions About Windham Foundation

    How does The Windham Foundation Inc make grants?

    It awards grants through biannual Spring and Fall cycles and also describes project grants and small local grants. The foundation accepts unsolicited applications, and its grantmaking can support operating needs, special initiatives, capacity building, and matching or challenge grants.

    What kinds of work does it fund?

    Recent and program-level focus areas include economic development, workforce development, food security and local food systems, conservation and natural resources, community arts, education, historic preservation, wellness and health access, housing, outdoor recreation and trails, and senior programs.

    What is the typical grant size?

    The distribution is modest: the 25th percentile is $1,000, the median grant is $2,930, and the 75th percentile is $5,000. Many recent awards fall in that range, even though some larger grants also appear in the list.

    Does it fund only Vermont organizations?

    Its grantmaking is local, and Vermont recipients dominate the record. The dataset shows 86% of grants going to recipients in Vermont, and the grant list contains US recipients only.

    Are grantees repeated across years?

    Yes. Several organizations appear in multiple years, including Grafton Public Library, Grace Cottage Hospital, South Hero Land Trust, Flow of History Inc, and Grafton Firemen's Assoc Inc. That suggests ongoing support rather than strictly one-time awards.
