Toledo Community Foundation, Inc. is a public charitable organization created by citizens of our community to enrich the quality of life for individuals and families in our service area. The Foundation serves northwest Ohio and southeast Michigan with a particular emphasis on the greater Toledo area. Grants from unrestricted funds support a variety of programs in the fields of education, social services, physical and mental health, neighborhood and urban affairs, natural resources and the arts.
Specific grant guidelines and grant application forms are provided for each grant opportunity as each fund supports a unique area. Only proposals submitted using the Foundation’s online application process will be considered. No hard copies will be accepted. Proposals, including all required attachments, must be received by midnight of the application deadline date in order to be considered for funding.
According to a new procedure instituted in 2017, organizational due diligence attachments (board list, IRS letter, financial statements, budget, background) must be submitted with every grant application made to Toledo Community Foundation, with the exception of applications made to the First Solar Corporate Charitable Fund and the Mud Hens-Walleye Transportation Fund. Faxed, emailed, mailed and/or delivered attachments will not be accepted. Acceptable file types include Word, Excel and PDF only. Please find detailed instructions within each set of grant guidelines below. Note that Toledo Community Foundation suggests that you clearly name the files. Before you upload these attachments to our application portal, save these documents on your own computer with a name that matches the attachment type and includes your organization’s name. (For example, “Board List – ABC Services Agency” or “Operating Budget – ABC Services Agency.”)
