Mission, Vision, and Grant Guidelines
Mission
The Sandy River
Charitable Foundation endeavors to engender the physical and social
well being and encourage the human spirit of our neighbors throughout
the world.
Vision
The Sandy River Charitable Foundation endeavors to fulfill its mission through a three pronged approach:
International: community and regional projects that address the causes
of predicament and set forth a process leading to a sustainable self
sufficient condition.
Within Maine: social, economic, arts, cultural, education, and community recreation programs.
National(US): Regional projects falling within the scope of International and Maine guidelines.
Eligibility
All proposals
shall be submitted in response to an invitation from The Sandy River
Charitable Foundation. Unsolicited proposals are not accepted. Receipt
of an invitation does not constitute a grant commitment on the part of
The Sandy River Charitable Foundation.
The Sandy River Charitable Foundation will only distribute grants to
qualified 501(c)(3) Public Charities: organizations currently
recognized by the US Internal Revenue Service as being described in
Section 509(a)(1)- also known as 170(b)(1)(A) groups, 509(a)(2), or
509(a)(3) of the Tax Code. The Foundation does not make grants to
individuals.
The Foundation will support general administration and such costs related to a specific project.
Multiple sources for project funding are encouraged, but not mandatory.
Process
The Sandy River
Charitable Foundation chooses organizations from which to invite
proposals through an internal board directed process. The Foundation
board and staff actively search for opportunities that fulfill the
board's interpretation of the Foundation's mission. We believe this
process allows the Foundation to maximize its efficiency by
concentrating its resources pursuing efforts it intends to fund, and
minimizes unnecessary resource expenditure by organizations searching
for funding.
