Deadlines

Complete proposals must be received before February 1st and before August 1st.

Application materials

Organizations should visit www.barkerwelfare.org for details regarding grant programs. In advance of submitting a funding inquiry, a telephone call is suggested to determine if the organization seeking to apply for a grant falls within the current general policy of the foundation. Before the foundation sends out an application form, an online funding inquiry is required describing the organization, its purpose, and the amount requested. Funding inquiries are accepted all year. Other requirements in order to complete a funding inquiry include: (1) two years of current audited financial statements or a review by a cpa. (2) two years of current 990's filed with the IRS. (3) copy of the first page of your most recent 990 filed with the IRS. (4) current budget and (5) copy of the organization's 501(c)(3) IRS determination letter.

Restrictions

Once the funding inquiry has been reviewed and it is determined that the organization falls within the foundations guidelines and is of interest to the grants advisory committee, you will be asked to complete a full application. Applications are initiated by the foundation. Because the foundation receives many more requests than it can fund, applicants May be notified at any time during the process that funds are not available. Should we decline to support a proposal, we ask applicants to wait at least one year before applying.

About this data

Figures are aggregated from The Barker Welfare Foundation's IRS Form 990-PF electronic filings (2 filings on file, most recent tax year 2024). Totals reflect grants the foundation reported as paid, and can lag the current year because foundations file annually and often on extension. Source: IRS 990-PF filing on ProPublica.
