How to Apply

P he Tiffany & Co. Foundation is pleased to announce a new online
application system. The new online grant application system allows
nonprofit organizations to submit a letter of inquiry for review.

Please note that the Foundation does not accept grant applications
that are submitted on paper or meeting requests.

To assist with the online grant application process, we recommend that
applicants type answers into a word-processing document, then copy
and paste entries into the appropriate sections online. This will speed the
online application process.

The Tiffany & Co. Foundation does not grant to:
  • Organizations that do not have tax-exempt status under
    Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, or the equivalent
  • Religious, political, lobbying, social or fraternal organizations
  • Fundraising benefits
  • Individuals, including those with a 501(c)(3) organization
    willing to accept funding on their behalf

Additionally, we do not accept requests for merchandise.

The Grant Making Process

Program staff review every submission and will notify applicants
if their plans fit within current program guidelines. Please only inquire
as to the status of your request if more than three months have
passed. While we do not accept declined proposals for re-evaluation,
we welcome subsequent letters of inquiry.

If a project is accepted for grant consideration, staff members will
ask for additional information which may include a detailed
proposal or a meeting with the principal organizers of the project.

Grants are awarded by the Tiffany & Co. Foundation board of directors,
who meet twice annually.

To qualify for a grant, a prospective grantee
must be a U.S.-based, tax-exempt organization
with 501(c)(3) status. A prospective grantee

Foundation's program guidelines.
