Annenberg Foundation Deadline: Rolling

Annenberg Foundation
Deadline: Rolling

As the principal means of achieving its goal of advancing the public well-being through improved communication, the Annenberg Foundation in St. Davids, PA, encourages the development of more effective ways to share ideas and knowledge.

Annenberg focuses on four major program areas: education and youth, arts and culture, community and civic and health. Eligibility: The foundation only considers organizations with 501 (c) (3) status.

For example, the foundation gave $100,000 to Dream Yard L.A. for the Los Angeles school-based prevention program which includes pregnant/teen mother workshops and after-school workshops at a local middle school. It also funded 10 Street Poets violence-prevention assemblies. The foundation's primary grant-making interests are in education (54%), arts and culture (28%), health (16%), and community and civic life (2%). It generally limits its funding to programs likely to produce change on a large scale.
