Nationwide Foundation Invites Applications for 2021 Grant Program

Established in 1959, the Nationwide Foundation is a nonprofit, private foundation that works to improve the quality of life in communities where many Nationwide members, associates, partners, and their families live and work.

To that end, the foundation invites applications for general operating support and project and/or program support from organizations serving the following communities: Brea/Orange County, California; Columbus (metro), Ohio; Denver, Colorado; Des Moines, Iowa; Gainesville, Florida; Harleysville, Pennsylvania; Harrisburg, Pennsylvania; Raleigh (metro), North Carolina; Sacramento, California; San Antonio, Texas; Scottsdale/Phoenix (metro), Arizona; and Wausau, Wisconsin.

The foundation has identified the following funding priorities:

Emergency and Basic Needs: Aligned with its business, the foundation aims to help in an emergency and partners with organizations that provide life’s necessities.

Crisis Stabilization: The foundation aims to partner with organizations that provide resources to help prevent crises or assist in the aftermath after one occurs.

Personal and Family Empowerment: Support for at-risk youth and families living in poverty who need tools and resources to improve their lives. The foundation aims to partner with organizations that assist individuals in becoming productive members of society.

The foundation will emphasize emergency and basic needs and crisis stabilization categories.

Applicants must serve at least one of the designated communities and be tax-exempt under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. As a general rule, national organizations are not eligible unless the applicant is a local branch or chapter providing direct services.
