Restrictions
Our grants vary in size and we rarely fund an entire program. We do not fund new programs. We instead focus on proven programs. We are primarily focused on programs that help end childhood hunger, address children's mental health and to a lesser extent, those that support community development in the montpelier, vt and dallas, tx areas. The vast majority of our funding is centered on central and northern vt and the dallas, tx area where our employees live and work. For our general grants program, we don't make grants for endowments, scholarships, higher education institutions, religious organizations, labor and fraternal groups, debt reduction or work that has already been completed. Additionally, we don't make grants to individuals, daycare facilities, or for school trips. Finally, we don't make grants to organizations that discriminate in any way on the basis of race, religion, gender, age, national origin, disability, or sexual orientation.
