Welcome to the Grant and Scholarship Centers
The Community Foundation for Palm Beach and Martin Counties is a public charity offering individuals and institutions a vehicle for their philanthropy.  Unlike a private foundation, the dollars available to the Community Foundation for grant distributions are from many sources, subject to specific terms and conditions established by the donors. The sources available to the Foundation for discretionary grantmaking are thus limited.

Since its founding, the Community Foundation for Palm Beach and Martin Counties has awarded over $84 million in grants and scholarships throughout our region. Many of our grants are the result of the Community Foundation partnering with individual and institutional donors through donor advised funds and collaborative grantmaking initiatives. The terms and conditions affecting distributions from these sources are determined by the donors and partners, subject to IRS rules, regulations and best philanthropic practices.
