Connelly Foundation Grants

Posted by Connelly Foundation on November 4, 2025

Rooted in the generosity of John and Josephine Connelly, the Connelly Foundation strengthens the Philadelphia region through purposeful giving. The Foundation champions access to exceptional Catholic education, opens doors to meaningful careers that honor the dignity of work, fosters engaged citizenship, and celebrates the region’s rich artstic and cultural heritage. With a spirit of joy and kindness, we support one another, create opportunities, and help communities thrive.

The Foundation is currently accepting applications from organizations working in three of four program areas —Catholic Education, Human Services, and Arts & Culture. (Philly and surrounding counties.) There are no submission deadlines.
