Transition Network Philadelphia Giving Circle invites applications

The Philadelphia Foundation has a century-long history of connecting community-minded individuals with the people and organizations helping to build a Greater Philadelphia Region.

The Transition Network Philadelphia Giving Circle, a special initiative of the foundation, is the philanthropic arm of the Philadelphia Chapter of The Transition Network (TTN), a national organization of professional women aged 50 and forward who seek to continue a life of learning, engagement, and leadership in the world.

TTN Philadelphia Giving Circle has designated 2023 as “The Year of the Child” and thus focuses exclusively on the needs of Philadelphia’s children. To that end, the TTN Philadelphia Giving Circle invites applications from Philadelphia nonprofit organizations which primarily serve, enrich, and enhance the health, safety, and well-being of children in Philadelphia in areas including, but not limited to, arts and culture, economic empowerment, education, environment, food access, health and wellness, housing, law, and justice.

Four grants of $30,000 each will be awarded for general operating support to organizations that provide direct and primary services to boys and/or girls from infancy to age 21. At least 50 percent of the children served must reside in Philadelphia.

To be eligible, applicants must be tax-exempt, defined by section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, and have a general operating budget for the most recent fiscal year end of $2 million or less.

For complete program guidelines and application instructions, see the Philadelphia Foundation website.

Deadline: February 17, 2023
