Ideal Applicant
A nonprofit (often small-to-mid sized) providing animal welfare, land conservation, community services, education, or local housing supports primarily in Montana and neighboring states, seeking general operating or project support and able to apply through an online portal.
Good Fit
- • Organization serves communities in Montana, Idaho, Utah, Wyoming or nearby states.
- • Request is for general operating or program support rather than an unusual restricted vehicle.
- • Organization has capacity to complete an online Foundant application and meet interim/final report deadlines.
- • Asks are in line with typical award sizes (many grants cluster around $10K–$50K with median near $20K).
- • Alignment with animal welfare, conservation, local education, or housing interests evident in past grants.
Geography
Grants are distributed across roughly ten states with a strong regional focus on the Mountain West; Montana receives about 30% of dollars while substantial giving also flows to UT, ID and WA.
Recipient Variety
The latest year shows about 110 distinct recipients, and across three years the foundation consistently funds many independent organizations rather than a tiny closed set; financial concentration is modest (top five ~13%).
New Applicants
The foundation publishes a public online application process and deadlines, and the latest year included 18 new grantees (about 16%), so unfamiliar applicants have a clear, observable path into the portfolio.
