The Mott Foundation funds grants in the United States and, on a limited geographic basis, internationally. While we’re open to new ideas and projects, funding for unsolicited requests is very limited. If you’re interested in submitting an idea to us for funding, the first step is to complete a letter of inquiry (LOI) form. Your LOI will help our program staff determine the relevance of your proposed project to our programs and provide you with advice on whether to submit a full proposal.

Prior to submitting an LOI, we ask you to learn more about our programs, funding interests, funding limitations and guidelines for organizations located outside the United States.

If, after reviewing all of the information, you determine that your organization and project fit within our guidelines and interests, please click on the link at the bottom of this page to access the LOI form.

 

Please note: U.S. government regulations require us to collect from each applicant, except governmental units or organizations, an affidavit and public support schedule to determine equivalence as a tax-exempt institution under U.S. law. If we invite you to submit a proposal, our staff will provide the forms and help you complete. All materials must be submitted in English.
