Our board meets quarterly to consider requests
These meetings are held in February, May, August and November. We must receive your proposal by 5 p.m. on the deadline date in order to review it at the corresponding board meeting. In the event that a deadline falls on a weekend or holiday, applications may be submitted by 5 p.m. on the following business day.
Although the Board of Directors considers requests for grants on a quarterly basis, as outlined, organizations can submit a full proposal or letter of inquiry at any time. Our Program Officers welcome the opportunity to answer questions or provide additional guidance on the phone or by email.
If you do not receive an acknowledgement of receipt of your proposal within one week, please contact the Foundation at (312) 580-0310 or applications@fryfoundation.org to confirm your proposal was received.
