How to Apply

The Stavros Niarchos Foundation makes grants to nonprofit organizations within four program areas: arts and culture, education, health and medicine, and social welfare. 

The Foundation is a grant-making organization only. It does not solicit or accept donations from individuals, corporations or other organizations. Additionally, the Foundation does not make grants to individuals or provide individual scholarships. To find out about supporting any of the organizations the Foundation supports, or to apply for assistance from programs funded by the Foundation at specific organizations, please contact those organizations directly.

All applicants should submit the grant request electronically by completing the relevant form available under the Application Form category. The Foundation considers grant inquiries throughout the year. Applications are evaluated by the Programs Department and all inquiries will receive a written response.  

 

The Stavros Niarchos Foundation cannot evaluate a new grant request from the same organization, before at least one year has passed since the submission of the previous request.
