Section I
How to Apply
Grants and other program support are designed to improve the capacity and sustainability of organizations to achieve their missions in the areas of health, human services, and education. The foundation gives the highest priority to activities that provide greater access to people who are economically disadvantaged and underserved. Of particular interest to the foundation are applications that specifically address the needs of low-income children, older adults, and people affected by disabilities and homelessness. The foundation also funds activities that benefit the general community and improve the quality of life for all individuals in Southern California. Grants are awarded for the period of time necessary to complete the proposed outcomes, with most grants ranging between one and two years. Generally, grantees must wait one year from the end of their grant period before reapplying for a new grant.
