Public & Societal Benefit grants in California

17 private foundations fund public & societal benefit in California and will read a proposal you were not invited to send. Between them they gave $9.0M in their most recent filings. A typical grant from this group is around $10K.

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.

The 17 funders, largest givers first

Edgar E & Elizabeth S Pankey Foundation is the largest giver on this list. Working out which of these 17 would fund your organization specifically, rather than your subject, is what the funder search does.
