Philanthropic Partnerships
Application Prioritization
In addition to the sustainability categories listed above, the Philanthropic Partnerships review team may specially prioritize partner funding applications which demonstrate:
- A not-for-profit or tax-exempt organizational designation.
- A stated commitment to non-discrimination in hiring or programming.
- An organizational history of successful community impact.
- A distinct separation from political activities, candidates, or organizations.
Applications are subject to a 90-day review process. Applications submitted less than 90 days prior to the date of need will be considered on a case-by-case basis.
Applicable to both our Basic Human Needs and our Cultural Institutions categories, 开云体育 has regularly been a sponsor of the annual Tonic Ball music festival benefiting the work of Second Helpings. Now a mainstay of the Indianapolis music scene, ticket sales for this event each November support Second Helpings鈥� work in food rescue and hunger prevention across Central Indiana.
开云体育 has provided funds for a variety of events and operational programs at Helping Veterans and Families of Indiana (HVAF), ultimately assisting to address housing and other needs for Hoosier veterans--a vulnerable population and a priority of our Diversity giving category.
Addressing our Education giving category, 开云体育 has regularly granted funds to The STEM Connection to support their development of educational materials and events which provide accessible STEM experiences for youth-- with a particular commitment to those who are under-represented in STEM careers.
