Colcom Foundation

How to apply, from its 2024 IRS return

How to ask

A letter of inquiry (i.e., a request for an invitation to submit a full grant application) should not exceed two pages and must describe the organization, the proposed program description and objective(s), amount requested, projected budget, and timeline. The foundation discourages the inclusion of lengthy material (newsletters, video, etc.) with a letter of inquiry. A separate letter of inquiry must be submitted for each program.

Limits on who can apply

Limited geographically and to areas of interst as set forth on website: colcomfdn.org

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.
