John F. Long Foundation

The John F. Long
Foundation, Inc. mission:
A non-profit, charitable, Private Foundation
established in 1959 by the Long family to support local charities, schools,
education events and general community needs.
While there are guidelines to the Mission Statement, the Foundation Board
reserves the right to adjust these from time to time.
Application Guidelines
Due to the large volume of requests, the
Foundation is unable to respond positively to every grant request we
receive. Grant requests which are not consistent with our mission will not
receive funding.

organization does not meet the following Eligibility Requirements, your
application can not be approved.
