We pursue these goals by awarding grants in three areas: the arts, education and social services. We also recognize the special value of efforts that create links among these areas. The Clowes Fund has a special interest in supporting projects that strengthen the communities in which Clowes family members and the foundation’s directors live and work.
2009 Grant Guidelines
The 2008 funding cycle is closed. The Clowes Fund Grant Guidelines for our 2009 cycle are now posted. Click here to review the guidelines in their entirety.
During the upcoming grant cycle, the Fund will only consider proposals from organizations with which we have an established relationship. We remain committed to an open and accessible grantmaking process. To that end we will allocate the time and energy that ordinarily would have been dedicated to reviewing preliminary proposals to reviewing our grantmaking process with the goal of improving efficiency.
