The Arthur N. Rupe Foundation does not accept unsolicited proposals; however, letters of inquiry (LOIs) may be submitted for consideration at https://www.grantinterface.com/Home/Logon?urlkey=rupe.
All grant inquiries and applications must be submitted exclusively through this online portal. Unsolicited letters, physical mail, and proposals sent outside of our digital application system will be securely discarded without review and will not receive a response.
The foundation’s grant committee reviews LOIs on a regular basis. If your project aligns with our mission and areas of interest, we will contact you with a request for additional information or an invitation to submit a full-length proposal. Board meetings are held in March, June, and October.
The Arthur N. Rupe Foundation prefers to fund time-specific projects rather than general operations or ongoing program support. It does not provide grants for individuals, fundraising events, conferences, endowments, or capital campaigns.
Thank you in advance for your inquiry and for taking the time to learn more about our foundation and funding interests.
