PREFACE

This Grants Directory is an update of a book published in1983and updated in1985.The first two editions were called "The Funding Guide for Native Americans" andwere published under my imprimatur, DCA Publishers. Both had information onsome 180giving organizations.

This volume reflects some dramatic and positive changes for the better for Indiannonprofits, schools, colleges, and tribes. The number of organizations whichare giving to Native Americans has increased from180 to over500.The total giving to Indian organizations per year has increased from$2million in 1978 to over $10 million, or 500%, according to a report by Native Americans in Philanthropy publishedin1991.The total has increased even more since, perhaps to$15 to $20million.

Only six foundation and corporations identified Native Americans in their policystatement in 1983. In 1999,fully87foundations and40corporations targetNative Americans.

Two other things have changed since1985.The Indian population has increased from1.4million to2.2 million.Foundation and corporate giving have increased dramatically (see Chart 1), froma total of$8 to $26 billion. Unfortunately, giving to Indians has not risen nearlyas fast as 1 giving to others.

Total giving to Indians is still far from parity. Foundation and corporate giving lastyear was $26 billion. The Indian population is2.2million people out of272million, or .081% The parity figure for giving to Indians is thus $210 million-much more than is actually being given. Indiansare clearly getting less than 10% of what they should be getting. That is not mainly the fault of the givers.It is mainly the fault of the Indian organizations. They (we) are not asking enough people often enough to fund Indiangrants.

The Native American Scholarship Fund has done a great deal of workto develop this book. First of all, we solicited all31,000foundations and corporate foundations in the U.S. in 1990 and1991.This work alone opened dozens of doors which had always been closed before. We receive grantson a weekly basis from founda-tions and corporations which have previously never made even one grant toany Indian organization.

To solicit the foundations and corporations, we built a complete data base of foundationsusing the National Data Book published by The Foundation Center. This data base isone of the most valuable of the many things the esteemed Center maintains.

Second, we searched a wide variety of sources to compile the information in this book.The Foundations on CD-ROM from The Foundation Center, the Internet, numerous state foundation directories, the Grants Index from The Foundation Center, individual reports, ourown data base of active foundation, and several other sources were consulted.

Also contributing to this work greatly has been thegroup Native Americans in Philanthropy. This tiny handful of Native American foundation executives and board members has literally openedhundreds of doors for Native American grant seekers. Their publications are trend-setting, timely, and valuable.

A few words of advice.First, use the subject index in the back of this book to do quick searches for grants. It is almost certainly a waste of time to sit and read all the informationon the numerous sources listed. No one should do that.

Second, DO NOT USE THIS BOOK AS THE ONLY SOURCE YOU CONSULT BEFORE WRITING A PROPOSAL. Use the Foundation Directory, the Grants Index, the several publicationson corpo-rate giving, and most important, the guidelines and polices of the specific foundation or corporation, to help fash-ionyour grant request. Many foundations are on the Internet now, and many have their own web sites,so collect-ing information about them is easier than ever. The National Indian Grant Directory iii

Third, read the first chapter before you start doing work on private sector grants. There are many ways to do things wrong, to take the wrong approach. Some of them can do you permanent harm, such as closing the doors of a particular source to you forever. DO YOUR HOMEWORK CAREFULLY AND WELL.

Finally, a word about authorship.I wrote this Preface and the first chapter on Preparation and Writing. Stacey Jenkins compiled the information and wrote the other four chapters. So the major credit for authorship goes to Ms. Jenkins. We wish her and her husband Dr. Devin Jenkins and their son David the best as they move from Albuquerque to Virginia Polytechnic Institute in Blacksburg, Virginia.

HOW TO USE THIS GUIDE research them all. We tried not to list any grant over five years old, because foundations change emphasis.

All foundations listed in this Guide have ex- pressed an interest in Native Americans in the past five years. Mainly, this interest has been expressed by making a grant. In other cases, the interest has not resulted in a grant, because the right type of application has not been received by them.

Schedule For Proposal Development

This section is intended as an aid to the proposal writer who wants to be competitive and to win grants more often than the average, run-of-the-mill writer. The desire for excellence carries through to more than the quality of the proposal; it is also an aspect of the writer's working habits. This schedule will be used mostly with government proposals and major proposals to foundations.

To make this schedule work for you, do the following things:

1. Determine the due date for the proposal under consideration. 2.Collect all the information possible about the granting agency (type of program interests, size of grants, restrictions, past grants, etc.) 3.Determine which actions on the schedule will be necessary for you to accomplish for this particular proposal. 4.Beginning with the last date on the schedule, estimate how many days (to the nearest 1/4 day) each task will take to finish. 5.Write in the date due (number 43). Work in reverse from this date to determine what your starting date will be.

QUESTIONS

How many times has the proposal been written and rewritten? What steps in this Schedule are not necessary for your organization? What steps can be combined? What tasks can be assigned to one person in your organization? What steps have you been ignoring? How ready is your organization, and are you, to undertake thorough preparation for fund raising, as outlined above? What aids/techniques/materials/skills do you and your organization need to acquire? How many days will it take to go from step 1 to step 43? What can you do to shorten the time frame, without giving up quality of proposals?

Remember, a proposal is a plan of action, and state- NOTES ments such as "We hope to serve 50 adults in this project," or "The coordinator should be able to make contact with most of the school counselors" tell the reader immediately that your proposal is not a plan of action, but a plan of wishes which may not come true.

RULE NUMBER TWENTY-THREE-Don't generalize; be specific. Vagueness or generalities in almost any form will detract from your proposal. Try to paint a word picture for the reader, for instance, in the method of operation section, which will let the reader see what staff persons are actually doing. Don't quote national statistics, unless your organiza- tion is a national one, and the problem the project will address is national in scope as well.

RULE NUMBER TWENTY-FOUR-Writean abstract, to clarify your thinking, and to help the read- er. Some foundations request an abstract, while others don't request one. For those which do not request one, it is good idea to include one. Keep it to one page, double-spaced, typed, 250 words or fewer. Briefly outline the problem, the proposed solution, and the total cost for the project.

RULE NUMBER TWENTY-FIVE-Be thorough, making absolutely certain that all the things called for in the guidelines are covered. It is almost demor- alizing to learn after the proposal has been submitted that an important element was inadvertently left out. GRANTSMANSHIP

Don't be afraid to write, to call, to visit, to ask questions, to make comments, and in gen- eral try to learn all you can about a funding agency. A gap exists between Native people and tribes and foundation; only Native people can bridge the gap. The reason is very simple-by their nature, founda- tions, corporations, and associations cannot be very effectivein outreach to their potential grantees. Often an attempt by a funder at outreach is misinter- preted by the agencies contacted as an offer of assis- tance, or an offer of a grant, so they tend not to make outreach. Too, funding agencies most often have more applicants than they can help support, and must turn down many more requests than they can honor. Unless the gap is bridged, Native people will continue to be shortchanged in grants from this sec- tor. Use the preferred method of contact when approaching a new foundation. There are basically four ways to contact them-telephone, letter, proposal, and visit. Being careless, and using the wrong method, can cause them problems, and can be bad public relations for your organization. The real secret, and the only one, to grantsmanship, is matching your agency's needs THE MAGIC TRIANGLE to the funding agency's interests. This is the main The "magic triangle" is the three important reason you want to learn everything you can about parts of a proposal the objectives, the activities or the agency, to make the job of the board members, methods, and the budget.

Descriptions of foundations that make grants to Native Americans

Few of these foundations make grants to Native Americans because oftheir status as Native Americans. They do make grants to organizations thatare doing work in their areas of interest. Grants listed are samples; no attempt was made to list all NativeAmerican grants made. Grants are generally only those made within the past fiveyears. Grants are accurate as reported by the foundations.

NOTE: A high percentage of the foundations listed had moved in the threeyears prior to the collection of the information listed in this DIRECTORY. If your lettercomes back, trace the foundation to its new address.
