Grant Procedure
Foundation application process and critera.
Apply for a Grant
The Steelcase Foundation makes grants to IRS-certified non-profit organizations in areas where Steelcase manufacturing plants are located (Grand Rapids, Michigan; City of Industry, California; Athens, Alabama; and Markham, Ontario.) We prefer not to be the sole support for a program. Also, we do not provide grants to individuals or to organizations that:
- Discriminate on the basis of race, religion, sex, disability, or national origin.
- Have received a Steelcase foundation grant within the past 12 months.
- Request support for a conference or seminar.
- Request support for religious programs (nonsectarian programs for humanitarian purposes are eligible for consideration.)
Application Process
To obtain a Steelcase Foundation grant application, send us a letter on your letterhead, signed by your organization's chief executive officer. Include the following items in your letter:
- Description of your organization or project
- Expected results of the project
- Amount of grant funds requested
- Copy of your IRS 501(c )(3) non-profit certification
Send your letter to:
