The Rozella Nottingham Trust is administered by Wells Fargo Trust Philanthropic Services under the provisions established by the Will of Rozella E. Nottingham. This private foundation focuses on supporting charitable organizations that offer services to the elderly within Ada County, Idaho. The trust reflects the donor's commitment to enhancing the well-being of older adults, specifically those aged 60 and above.
The primary objective of the Rozella Nottingham Trust is to fund initiatives that provide health and human services to senior residents in Ada County. The trust specifically targets 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations that are actively serving this demographic within the defined geographical boundaries. No exceptions are made regarding geographic limitations; only organizations located in Ada County that directly benefit seniors are eligible.
Applications are accepted throughout the year, but to be considered for the annual grant cycle, submissions must be completed by June 30. Decisions regarding funding are generally communicated by this deadline. The trust may require periodic progress updates and final reports from recipients to ensure that funds are used appropriately and the intended outcomes are being achieved.
Applicants begin the process by applying online through the Wells Fargo Trust Philanthropic Services portal. Upon submission, organizations receive an automated confirmation email. While detailed application questions are not listed on the public webpage, the application likely includes standard nonprofit funding questions such as organizational mission, proposed use of funds, and impact evaluation plans.
The Rozella Nottingham Trust does not provide funding for educational scholarships directly; individuals interested in scholarships are directed to csascholars.org. For grant-related questions or technical support, applicants can contact Wells Fargo’s grant administration team by phone at 1-888-235-4351 or via email at grantadministration@wellsfargo.com. The governing instrument of the foundation will take precedence over any discrepancies in the publicly available information.
