| Abstract: | The Ben & Jerry's Foundation offers competitive grants to not-for-profit, grassroots organizations throughout the United States which facilitate progressive social change by addressing the underlying conditions of societal and environmental problems. All of the Foundation's funding decisions are made by a team of Ben & Jerry's employees that meets three times a year to review proposals. We do not offer grants to support basic or direct social service programs. |
| Categories: | Environmental Health, Community Health |
| Eligible Applicants: | Generally we fund organizations with budgets under $250,000. We only distribute funds to organizations with 501(c)3 status, or who have a sponsoring agency with this status. |
| Deadline Date: | The application process to the Ben & Jerry's Foundation begins with an initial Letter of Interest, and if invited, is followed by a full proposal. Letters of Interest may be submitted at any time and are reviewed on an ongoing basis. |
