RTNF Closes Grant Portal

We wanted to take a moment to provide an important update regarding our grant application process. At the Ray and Tye Noorda Foundation, we are committed to supporting impactful initiatives and organizations aligned with our mission. However, due to both staffing and projected cash flows contraints, we have made the decision to close our grant application portal to new applicants. Moving forward, applications will be accepted by invitation only.

This portal closure is aimed at allowing our team to support our existing partners and avoid wasting applicants' time in an increasingly competitive application process with less and less space for new partnerships.

We understand the significance of the work being done by organizations around the world. Our commitment to supporting meaningful projects remains steadfast. While we are pausing review of new applicants, we will continue to support our existing partners. Furthermore, if we have space in our portfolio in the future, we will engage in "quiet" scoping and review of opportunities to save prospective partners' time.

We deeply appreciate the dedication and passion exhibited by all those striving to make a positive difference in their communities and beyond. Your contributions are invaluable, and we are honored to be a part of the journey toward creating a better future for all.

Thank you for your understanding.
