The Campbell Foundation is a small family foundation headquartered in Austin, Texas. They support nonprofits that create equitable access to opportunity through education. Grants are focused in the regions where trustees live: Austin, New Orleans, and the San Francisco Bay Area. The foundation primarily provides unrestricted general operating support grants, but can consider specific program support requests. They often make multi-year grants to established grant partners, with an average grant amount of $25,000 per year. The Campbell Foundation uses Foundant, an online Grants Management System for their application process.
For organizations without an established relationship with The Campbell Foundation, they need to set up an account in Foundant and submit a Letter of Interest using the provided link. However, due to limited resources and existing relationships with grantees, they may not always be able to accommodate new grant relationships. For organizations with an established relationship or those invited to apply for funding, a Letter of Interest is not required but an access code is needed for use in Foundant.
The Campbell Foundation reviews grant applications on a rolling basis and does not make grants more than once in a calendar year to the same organization. They do not fund private foundations or individuals. Annual reporting is required from grantees either through a grant report conversation or a written submission on Foundant. Current grantees will receive an email before their grant period ends with more details about reporting options.
To access the grant portal and begin the application process, users can create a new account or log in if they already have one. If there are any questions or inquiries, organizations can contact info@thecampbellfoundation.org for assistance.
