Endowments are essential for nonprofit sustainability, providing long-term financial stability, and the chance for investments. Endowment grants can go along ways towards helping set up these endowments for nonprofits.

There are many different organizations that might give these kinds of endowment grants. This includes many private foundations, such as the Kresge Foundation, Ford Foundation and the Charles Stewart Mott Foundation. 

When drafting endowment grant proposals, you need to make sure that you explain clearly what the endowment is for, and how it will help your nonprofit’s mission. You should do a full financial breakdown of the investments and returns you are hoping to achieve with this endowment. 

If you need more information on drafting great grant proposals, make sure to check out our comprehensive overview of the topic. You can also start browsing endowment grants right here, all open for application.
