SS Heyneman Foundation prefers to make project specific grants, but also makes general operating grants on occasion.
The Foundation’s purpose is to support qualified charities focusing in the humanities, education, or the performing and fine arts.
We have a bifurcated grant process. Small operating grants (under $5k) are awarded via a discretionary fund available to the E.D.
These grants are made primarily in Stillwater and Yellowstone County, Montana, and Sheridan County, Wyoming.
Larger requests go through a formal application review process with the Board. The board reviews all applications and votes on grants to be made.
We operate with 2 grant cycles; one begins in March-April and make grants in May, and with the other, we collect applications in September-October and grants are awarded in November.
