Philanthropy & Grantmaking grants in California (page 2 of 2)

83 private foundations fund philanthropy & grantmaking in California and will read a proposal you were not invited to send. Between them they gave $891M in their most recent filings. A typical grant from this group is around $8K.

Worked out from where the money actually went rather than from mission statements, and from the box on each filing that says whether they take applications at all. Most small foundations give almost entirely within one state, which is why this cut is the one worth starting from.

Ranked 61 onwards

The David and Lucile Packard Foundation is the largest giver on this list. Working out which of these 83 would fund your organization specifically, rather than your subject, is what the funder search does. 5 of them also reported program-related investments, which is how foundation money reaches a company.
