Funding Information
- Mabee Foundation grants are ‘challenge grants,’ meaning that the organization must raise the remaining funds required to finish the project within one year of the awarding of the grant or risk cancellation of the grant.
- The Mabee Foundation will grant up to 20% of the total costs of the project (with a maximum amount of $2,000,000).
- Construction must commence within two years after satisfying the grant challenge. Payment is not made on the grant until the challenge has been satisfied and construction has started.
Requirements
The Mabee Foundation requires that 40% of the total project be raised by other public donors before it will consider a grant request. Names of donors must be included in the grant application. The 40% fundraising requirement must be met by the time an application is submitted. The following will not be considered in the calculation of the 40% prior funding requirement:
- Borrowed funds
- Internal or reserve funds
- Estate bequests not designated for capital projects
- Any donation not designated for the particular project in question
- Government grants or funds from any governmental entity
Eligibility Criteria
- To qualify for a Mabee Foundation grant, the project must be located in Texas, Oklahoma, New Mexico, Arkansas, Missouri or Kansas.
- The Mabee Foundation makes grants exclusively to non-profit, 501(c)(3) organizations.
