How to apply

As indicated in the Mission Statement, within its four program areas – arts and culture, education, health and medicine, and social welfare – the Stavros Niarchos Foundation makes grants for operating and program support as well as for select capital projects and endowments. No grants are made to individuals.

The Directors suggest prospective applicants initially submit a brief letter of inquiry describing the organization seeking funds, the proposed program or project and the funding requested. Inquiries may be submitted at any time and all written inquiries will receive a response. Full proposals will be requested at the discretion of the Directors, at which time applicants will be asked to provide all relevant required information.
