To be eligible for support from the Funder Collaborative, an applicant must:

  • Be a public charity recognized as tax-exempt under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.
  • Ensure that all project activities will take place in the City of Philadelphia, and/or Bucks, Chester, Delaware, or Montogomery County, Pennsylvania.

Recommendations

In addition, the Funder Collaborative strongly encourages:
