GENERAL

Position as a Vermont-serving organization or as an intermediary aligned with the foundation’s community, arts, or human services priorities and use the website contact form to submit a beneficiary suggestion or nomination; cultivate introductions or partnerships with known local intermediaries (for example Vermont Community Foundation) because the foundation routes major dollars through large, relationship-based grants and does not operate a standard open RFP. Emphasize clear local impact and existing community credibility rather than expecting an open competitive application.
