What are your guidelines for making grants?
The Highland Street Foundation grants tend to fall under our many areas of interest including child welfare, education, environment, healthcare and the arts. What kinds of organizations do you fund? The grants we make often develop out of the collaborative relationships we have formed with other organizations as we work together toward common goals. Therefore, we do not seek unsolicited grant proposals, and have no proposal submission deadlines or pre-established funding limits. Are your grants restricted to specific geographical regions? The Foundation primarily funds programs within the Commonwealth of Massachusetts but has also funded outside the state at the request of Highland Street Foundation Trustees. Can I submit my proposal via the Internet? How can I receive an application form? The Highland Street Foundation accepts proposals online by invitation only. Invited applicants may enter your invitation code here and begin the proposal submission process. Organizations without an invitation may complete our online eligibility quiz. If eligible, you may submit a short online Letter Of Inquiry. After formal review, you will be notified if more information is requested. Can I check on the status of grant proposals and submit required reports online?
Grant recipients required to submit an annual impact report (aka progress report or final report) will receive an email reminder when the submission period begins. They may then login to their account to submit the report. How often may an organization apply for funding?
The Highland Street Foundation will accept only one Letter of Inquiry per organization per year. What are some of the organizations to whom the Foundation has awarded a grant?
