Vincent Foundation


The Vincent Foundation board of directors meets twice each year with the meetings held the third Sunday in May and October. It is at such meetings that decisions are made regarding requests for funding. Material must be received prior to these dates so that each Board member can receive copies in a timely manner. The deadlines are March 21 and August 21. Six copies of your application and an equal volume of supporting materials for examination by the Board will be most welcome.

In recent years, annual distributions from the Vincent Foundation have been in the range of $100,000 with a maximum of $15,000 set by the Board for any one recipient. Preference is given to "grass roots" organizations, to those in the inner-city, as well as to those in the home areas of members. Their guidelines for giving should be consulted and followed closely.

Projects in the inner city or in the areas wherein Board members live have priority. Those areas include California, Connecticut, Maryland and South Carolina.

BETF seeks to partner with eligible chapter on funding for their SITES program. If you are interested please let us know through the COMMENTS section below. First come; first served...
