In 2021, over 120 applications were received by the Earl B. and Loraine H Miller Foundation, with approximately $1,800,000 in grants awarded to sixty-eight of those applicants. In order to be responsive to the needs and challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, our foundation provided the opportunity for grantees to utilize funding for operations.
Applications
Types of Support
The Miller Foundation provides funding for the following types of requests for support:
- Programs
- Core Operating Support
- Capacity Building
NEW THIS GRANT CYCLE
Please note: In order to best address the needs of our community’s children and provide effective support for our nonprofit partners, we are establishing a three-year award limit. Beginning with this grant cycle, organizations awarded funding for three consecutive years must refrain from applying for a period of one year. In other words, if your organization receives funding in 2022, 2023 and 2024, you must not apply again until 2025.
Length of Support
Due to limited available funding, the Foundation will only consider one-year requests for support.
