Top Giving Foundations: Michigan

The following list of top giving foundations in Michigan is derived from The Grantsmanship Center'ssm funding databases. All of the foundations listed have been prescreened to ensure that they have a staff, issue RFPs, or otherwise indicate an interest in receiving proposals. This also means that some foundations who give large amounts of money have been omitted because they do not meet these qualifications. A maximum of forty foundations is listed for each state.
