Making an Application
Two Grant Cycles
Hutton Parker Foundation will facilitate two Core/General Operating Support grant cycles in calendar 2021. Each cycle will consist of a 30 day Open Application Period followed by an approximately 60 day Review & Evaluation Period. Applicants must choose to apply to only one of the two cycles. Duplicate applications will not be accepted. Any SANTA BARBARA COUNTY-based nonprofit (501(c)(3))organization is eligible to apply for this funding. A maximum 30 qualified and complete applications will be accepted per cycle.
See Cycle I and Cycle II details to the right.
Please contact Pam Lewis, COO at plewis@huttonfoundation.org with any questions regarding eligibility, our application process and procedure, and/or any other inquires.
