Within the scope of our strategic plan, the Blank Family Foundation will identify and invite potential partners to apply for grants around our specific initiatives. We will seek partners from all sectors – public, private and nonprofit. The Foundation will no longer accept unsolicited grant requests. For more information about our strategic direction, please see these frequently asked questions.

Our geographic focus is in communities where members of the Blank family have deep roots: Atlanta; Maricopa County, Arizona; and Beaufort County, South Carolina.

The Foundation staff remains interested in receiving information relevant to programs in its focus areas and is open to idea sharing and dialogue on potential partnerships and collaborative efforts. Specific guidelines for grants related to focus areas will be provided to prospective partners through a variety of channels, including requests for proposals, individual contact and collaboration-centered meetings.

Please contact a member of our staff regarding the specific initiatives and focus areas in which you are interested.
