Applicants should align proposals tightly with the foundation’s stated initiatives (environment and science, ocean conservation, climate, families and communities), use the website to identify the appropriate program contact or initiative-specific application route, and be prepared to demonstrate organizational capacity and measurable outcomes; California relevance can help but national/international proposals have precedent. Relationship-building with program staff and following posted application guidelines are practical ways to engage.
