Applying for Funding

The Guru Krupa Foundation Inc funds a limited number of projects every year. We are always looking for new and worthy causes to support.

Eligibility

Grants are limited to tax-exempt organizations, not individuals. Proposals are evaluated based on their fit with the Foundation's charter listed here. Programs must run in India or the US.

Applications are accepted on a rolling basis. On average, the review process takes approximately 2-3 months. The Foundation prefers specfic projects that have measurable deliverables (rather than generic funding) and prefers organizations that follow stringent accounting practices. Our preference is for funds to go directly towards the program being funded, rather than towards admininstrative costs.

If you believe your organization meets our criteria and are interested in applying for a grant, please follow the application details below and email completed applications to info@guru-krupa.org . Please note that incomplete applications will not be considered.

If you have any questions about whether your organization is eligible for funding, please email us at info@guru-krupa.org .
