Application
and Letter of Interest
Due to the volume of applications, we no longer accept unsolicited LOIs. If you are interested in applying, please contact us to start a conversation about whether you might qualify for our current funding parameters.
To be considered for a grant from the Matthews Foundation, an organization must initially submit a Letter of Interest online. If it is determined you qualify to apply, the link will be provided to you.
The Letter of Interest may not exceed three (3) pages in length.
Specific guidelines for application eligibility apply to any program or organization that wishes to submit a Letter of Interest.
The specific guidelines regarding eligibility are as follows:
- The organization has been established and operated within San Diego County for more than one year .
- The organization has no religious or political affiliation
A Letter of Intent submitted by an organization or on behalf of any program that the Foundation, in its absolute discretion, determines for any reason not to be eligible, will be rejected without notice.
