While WWFC recognizes that there are many worthy endeavors, many with only limited resources, it is our policy not to accept unsolicited grant proposals. Therefore, we do not have any funding guidelines. We strive to build partnerships and long-lasting relationships with a limited number of California & Illinois-based community programs. WWFC provides direct grants and donations to other 501©(3) non-profit organizations. We do not fund individuals, travel, films, videos, religious organizations, political causes, campaigns, or candidates. WWFC does not support organizations that discriminate.
We wish you the best of luck with your projects.
