Gary E Milgard Family Foundation-Sunshine

How to apply, from its 2025 IRS return

How to ask

A letter of inquiry is the first step in the grant application process. The letter of inquiry is reviewed, and if approved, the applicant will be requested to provide a full application.

Deadlines

There is no deadline for submitting a letter of inquiry.

Limits on who can apply

All applicant organizations must qualify as tax-exempt organizations under the Internal Revenue Code. Certain proposals are ineligible for funding, such as: annual funds, galas, or other special event fundraising activities; sectarian religious activities, debt reduction, political lobbying, or legislative activities; and organizations that discriminate on the basis of age, race, national origin, ethnicity, gender, political affiliation or religious belief.

Grants paid in 2025

$1.4 million, 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.
