North Carolina Grantmaking Charities Making Grants Over $100,000

These 30 organizations are based in North Carolina and reported a median grant of $100,000 or more on their most recent Form 990 Schedule I filing. A typical grant is not a promise about any single gift -- some of an organization's grants are smaller than its median, some are larger -- but it is a reasonable signal for whether an application here fits the size of your ask.

A median grant over $100,000 is large by this site's standards. It is worth reading the organization's own page before treating it as a routine prospect -- Schedule I does not ask a grantmaking charity whether it only funds organizations it already knows, so unlike the private-foundation pages on this site, nothing here can tell you how open a given grantmaker actually is to a first, unsolicited approach.

Ordered by number of organizations funded, not by dollars -- the same convention as every list on this site. Funding more organizations means more turnover in who gets a grant each year, which is a reasonable proxy for how often a list like this one changes -- it is not a signal that any specific organization is open to a new, unsolicited applicant.

Schedule I only reports grants over $5,000. Every median grant on this page describes the grants reported, not all of them, so the real typical grant is likely lower than shown. This is also why these figures cannot be compared to the private-foundation figures elsewhere on this site.
