GRANT GUIDELINES

The CLAWS Foundation’s funding is really a lifesaver. The CLAWS Foundation, one of the best things about their funding, is that it is given to us in a way that we have flexibility and latitude to expand programs — be on the cutting edge.

– Christine C. Quinn, President and CEO, Women in Need (WIN)

The CLAWS Foundation accepts grant requests throughout the year. While the Foundation has no formal application form or standardized format, it is recommended that each grant request contains the following:

• A summary of the project and its objectives
• A project budget including the amount requested
• A copy of the IRS letter confirming the organization’s tax-exempt status under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code

Please note, the CLAWS Foundation does not accept unsolicited grant requests and cannot provide grants to individuals.
