Because the foundation funds many independent organizations but does not accept unsolicited inquiries, the practical route is relationship- and network-based: cultivate introductions through mutual partners or prior grantees, demonstrate clear program fit with immigration/education/entrepreneurship in California, and make requests consistent with the foundation's typical grant sizes and general operating support preferences. Unsolicited public applications are unlikely to succeed.
