The Enterline Foundation Grant Program

The Enterline Foundation is a private nonprofit foundation recognized under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. It is dedicated to supporting organizations that serve individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD), with a particular focus on transition-age youth and adults. The Foundation’s strategic grantmaking is shaped by national frameworks such as the National Core Indicators and the Council on Quality Leadership, which emphasize measurable quality-of-life outcomes for individuals with IDD. For its 2026 grant cycle, the Enterline Foundation has identified “Access to Services” as its primary funding priority. This focus reflects a commitment to enhancing the availability, quality, and reach of services that directly improve the lives of individuals with IDD. Organizations must demonstrate how their programs or initiatives support improved service access for this population. This could include efforts in areas such as transportation, community integration, workforce development, or healthcare navigation tailored to IDD needs. The 2026 grant cycle will be conducted through an invitation-only process, aimed at ensuring alignment with the Foundation’s priorities and maximizing impact. Interested organizations are encouraged to introduce themselves via the Foundation’s Contact Us page, where they should describe their organization’s priority need in the Comments box. This early engagement may inform future grantmaking or relationship-building, although it does not constitute a formal application. Grant reporting is a required component of the Foundation’s process. Recipients are expected to submit grant reports using the appropriate form—Single Year, Multi Year, or Legacy—based on the type and terms of the grant received. Reporting deadlines and requirements are detailed in individual grant agreements. These reports help the Foundation assess grantee performance and understand the impact of funded activities. Grants are available to eligible organizations operating in any U.S. state or territory. However, to be eligible, organizations must serve individuals with intellectual and/or developmental disabilities; serving individuals with physical disabilities alone does not meet eligibility requirements. The Foundation does not list a formal application deadline or detailed evaluation criteria, given its invitation-only model for 2026. No public application materials, budget templates, or submission portals are currently provided. The Foundation’s contact phone number is 770-271-3032. No named contact person or specific grant program email is listed. Interested parties must use the Foundation’s online contact form for initial outreach. As there is no stated application timeline or open date, and no publicly available call for proposals, the program should be regarded as closed to open applications at this time. Organizations aligned with the Foundation’s focus are encouraged to establish contact in anticipation of future opportunities.
