Davis Family Foundation Project Grants

About this program

The Davis Family Foundation funds innovative, project-specific initiatives benefiting Maine communities in education, medical care, and cultural or arts programming. Priority is given to evidence-based, impactful projects, including pilots with plans for sustainability beyond the grant period. Eligible applicants must meet the Foundation’s organizational criteria; education applicants should work directly with schools or employ certified teachers, while medical applicants must involve licensed clinicians and demonstrate measurable healthcare benefits for Maine residents. Requests should exclude overhead, general operating costs, multi-year grants, scholarships, endowments, and prohibited activities such as religious programs, deficit reduction, fellowships, and loans.
