If you believe your project is a good fit with the Foundation’s grant guidelines, we strongly encourage you to talk to a program officer before applying. Please fill out the contact form below to begin the process to receive login information for the online grant application. Your information will be submitted to our Program team, and someone will follow up with next steps. Or, call the Foundation office at (810) 233-0170 so we can put you in touch with a member of our team. If you are already working with a Ruth Mott Foundation program officer, you do not need to fill out the form below.

ELIGIBILITY: Grants are awarded to non-profit 501(c)3 organizations and to other qualifying tax-exempt institutions such as schools, units of government, hospitals and religious institutions. We do not make grants to individuals. If your organization does not have 501(c)3 status but wishes to propose a project, talk to one of our program team members to learn about your options.
