Foundations that accept applications

Every one of the 19,390 private foundations that will read a proposal you were not invited to send, built from their own 990 filings. Quillify tracks 129,000+ funders in all.

Free to browse, no account. Each foundation here says on its own 990-PF that it accepts applications.

Find a foundation

Search the featured funders below by name, or browse by state and by what they fund.

These are the largest givers that accept applications. Searching all 19,390 of them, filtered to what you are actually eligible for, is what the product does. Read from filings indexed on August 7, 2026; foundations file annually, so these figures describe a year that has already closed.

Browse by state

Most small foundations give almost entirely within one state, so where a funder sits matters more than it looks.

Browse by what they fund

Derived from where the money actually went rather than from a stated mission.

The 262 that also lend and invest

262 of these foundations reported a program-related investment on their most recent 990-PF: money moved as a loan, a guarantee or an equity stake rather than a grant. That is one filing year rather than a standing program, and it is one of the few routes foundation money reaches a for-profit company.

What that means if you are a company.
