Frequently Asked Questions

The Foundation makes grants only to qualified tax-exempt organizations. No grants are made to individuals or to foreign charities that have not received funding from the Foundation in the past (such charities must continue to have a fiscal agent in the United States with tax-exempt status). The Foundation does not conduct personal interviews and does not publish an annual report.

The Board of Directors meet twice a year, once in the spring and once in the fall, to review grant proposals. To be considered at a Board meeting, a completed proposal must be submitted by March 1st and September 1st for the spring and fall cycles. Applications received after these dates will be held for the subsequent meeting. Successful grantees will be notified by June 15th for the spring granting cycle and by December 15th for the fall granting cycle. You will not be notified if the Foundation declines to make a grant.

The Foundation does not typically fund educational institutions or programs in the following areas: medicine, religion, or general social programs, including homelessness, poverty, domestic violence, drug addiction, and crime rehabilitation.

If your project falls within any of these areas, please do not submit a grant proposal.

The New-Land Foundation receives many more applications for grants than it could possibly approve. Because the Foundation often makes repeat grants to organizations, we have a very limited budget for new applicants.
