Investing in Opportunities the Enrich Lives and Enable Equitable Solutions

The T. Rowe Price Foundation was founded in 1981 and has since given over $194M USD in direct grants and matching gift contributions. Our community-centric approach requires that we listen, are responsive, and co-create solutions that support communities in the places that create Impact where we live and work.

Grants
Through our community investments, we support the advancement of community leaders, community organizations and community networks.
For most grants, our team will approach an organization directly to invite them to submit a grant proposal. Throughout the year we also review unsolicited grant proposals that align to our giving areas. Our grants are unrestricted for general operating purposes to help expand an organizations’ mission and ability to do their important work. Our funding primarily supports organizations in Baltimore as well as in Colorado Springs, San Francisco and New York that have an approved nonprofit status.1
The following steps outline the grant making process:
