Application Process
1. Organization Registration.
We invite organizations applying for the first time to register their organization and provide brief information by completing the registration form on our website. The form will be available starting November 1.
2. Letter of Inquiry.
After reviewing the information provided and determining whether the organization’s activities align with the Foundation’s priority areas, we may invite you to complete a Letter of Inquiry. A template is available in the Documents section of our website.
If your organization has previously received support from the Kazickas Family Foundation, you do not need to register again. Please submit a Letter of Inquiry by email to grants@kff.lt during the application period.
3. Application Review.
The Kazickas Family Foundation Board makes the final funding decision. We will notify you of the decision within 6 months of receiving the Letter of Inquiry. If you do not receive confirmation of funding within this period, this means that your request was not approved. If needed, you may submit a new request the following year.
Grant Application Guidelines
The Kazickas Family Foundation provides general operating and project support to the areas that have significance to the family and its members. Grants are given mainly for Lithuanian causes and communities in Lithuania and the US. The foundation supports organizations working in the fields of social inclusion, youth empowerment and education, diaspora engagement, and crisis response. We also support initiatives in the areas of art and culture, medicine, human rights, and more. Only organizations that have 501(c)(3) status are eligible. KFF is not giving support to individuals.
Every application is part of an open competition. After reading all applications, KFF may select applicants for more in-depth review and request additional information as part of the continuing review process.
Organizations that are funded by KFF cannot apply for additional funds until they file an End of the Grant Report on past grants.
Organizations that are rejected may apply again by the next deadline, if they wish. KFF does not view applicants that have been declined in any adverse way. These applicants may request feedback on their proposals.
