Dennis & Audrey Brown Foundation

How to apply, from its 2025 IRS return

How to ask

There is no application form used in the selection process. Information regarding the scholarship is given to the schools over the phone. The school then makes the students aware of the scholarship opportunity. Following this, the school makes recommendations to the board of directors and from there the recipient is chosen.

Limits on who can apply

There is no particular requirement. Most schools that recipients attend are on a quarter basis. At the end of each quarter the grades will be reviewed based on forward progress (not necessarily by the grade) and the next quarterly grant will be approved. When reviewing the grades, if it is determined that forward progress is not being made, then the next quarterly grant will not be approved.

Grants paid in 2025

$80,619, to organizations

This is what the foundation told the IRS on Form 990-PF. It isn’t a confirmed open grant round, and details may have changed, so contact the foundation before applying. Its mailing address is on the full return: see it on ProPublica’s Nonprofit Explorer.
