Description
The Snave Foundation Matching Grant supports not-for-profit educational institutions and charitable organizations whose work reflects the ideals, values, and standards of the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers). Established in 1988, the private, family-run foundation administers the program through its Grants Committee. Matching Grants connect foundation support with personal charitable giving by adult family members.
The foundation prioritizes originality and innovation in designated programs, projects, and services. Areas of interest include libraries, building or renovation projects, scholarships, outreach programs, and special designated purposes. It also emphasizes new or expanded services for poor and/or elderly people in their homes and communities. The program does not fund research programs or awards to individuals.
