While their core mission remains stable, they prioritize established non-profit organizations, with grantmaking often having a national scope, though some initiatives may favor the Washington D.C. area.
The Herb Block Foundation typically accepts unsolicited proposals through a structured application process. Prospective grantees are often encouraged to submit an initial inquiry or Letter of Interest before a full proposal, adhering to specific annual deadlines.
