The Harvest Foundation is not currently accepting letters of inquiry.
We are evaluating our grant application process.
We do not expect to substantially change our areas of funding priorities, but that will be considered.
Please watch this web site for updates.
September 26 2022: In Spring of 2022 we awarded grants to seven Arts Education organizations.
For our Fall 2022 grant cycle we have asked a group of organizations to submit applications for Social Service grants. At this time we are not accepting letters of inquiry for grants in 2022 or 2023. Plans for 2023 grantmaking are not determined yet.
We appreciate your patience as we work to update our grantmaking process.
The Harvest Foundation was created in 2000 as a private, family foundation to provide funding primarily in the areas of Social Services and Education. The Harvest Foundation awards grants to 501(c)(3) organizations located in Washington, Oregon, Alaska, Idaho, and Montana.
The Foundation awards annual grants in the amount of $10,000 each. Multi-year grants are not considered. Grants will not be made to the same organization for more than three consecutive years.
Grants must not constitute more than 20% of the supported program’s annual budget. The Foundation will consider applications for general operating grants only for organizations whose mission and operations are closely aligned with the Harvest Foundation’s funding areas.
Social Services
The Foundation seeks to support the work of community social service agencies. It is specifically interested in organizations that provide services in two areas:
- Promoting economic self-sufficiency through education and training of youth or families with children.
- Serving the elderly by providing services to help senior citizens live independently.
Arts Education Grants
The Foundation’s goal for grants in arts education is to assist arts organizations in providing hands-on arts classes in schools.
The desired outcome of these classes must include an alignment with state arts education requirements.
Applications from organizations serving low-income or underserved children will be favored.
Funding of both capital items and operating program costs will be considered.
Starting in 2022, the Harvest Foundation will no longer fund teacher training in technology and curriculum development.
