The Priddy Foundation® is seeking grant applications to support programs in human services, education, the arts, and health, which offer significant potential for individual development and community improvement. Donor Name: The Priddy Foundation State: Oklahoma, Texas County: Selected Counties Type of Grant: Grant Deadline: 08/01/2024 Size of the Grant: Not Available Grant Duration: Grant Duration Not Mentioned Details: Focus Areas  Arts and Culture Civic/Government Education Health Human Services Other Youth Types of Grants  Within the categories listed above, the foundation makes the following types of grants: Program Grants The Priddy Foundation® has significant interest in requests which create or expand program services. Program requests should deal effectively with identified problems and opportunities. In most cases, programs should be sustainable beyond the grant period and realistically match the requesting organization’s mission and capacity.  Organizations should be able to evaluate results against defined standards of measurement. Operating Grants The Priddy Foundation® considers general operating requests, but is wary of fostering annual budget dependency.  Operating grants typically require a grantee organization to present a practicable plan to achieve self-sufficiency and may require the organization to enter into a formal consulting arrangement with a Nonprofit Management Service Organization (MSO) to improve organizational capacity. Capital Grants The Priddy Foundation® considers capital projects for buildings and major items of equipment. Approval is more likely if the project has existing, broad support from organizations and individuals. Rarely will The Priddy Foundation’s contribution exceed 20% of the total project budget; often it will be much less. Organizations must attain their project fundraising goal and document that raised funds are sufficient to complete the project as presented in the grant application before a capital grant is funded. Organizational Development Support Grants The Priddy Foundation® has an interest in increasing the capacity of an organization to serve more effectively in a complex and changing world.  Requests for leadership development/capacity of board and staff, planning initiatives, technical assistance, and technology enhancements are considered. Organizational development grants must include a comprehensive plan supported by the organization’s board, outside professional assistance, if appropriate, and linkage between the leadership development plan and the ability of the organization to achieve and sustain its mission more effectively. Geographical Areas Interested primarily in programs that have the potential for lasting and favorable impact on individuals and organizations, the Foundation considers grant applications that have a physical location within the following counties: Texas Archer, Baylor, Childress, Clay, Cottle, Foard, Hardeman, Haskell, Jack, King, Knox, Montague, Stonewall, Throckmorton, Wichita, Wilbarger, Wise, and Young. Oklahoma Comanche, Cotton, Jackson, Jefferson, Stephens, and Tillman. Criteria  The Priddy Foundation® makes grants to 501(c)3 organizations, as described by the Internal Revenue Code.
