What types of projects do you fund?

​

We provide naming grants for capital projects, usually for educational institutions, and preferably with a business and free enterprise focus. ​​

​

Our goals and mission seem aligned, but I'm not necessarily an educational institution, could I still apply for a grant?

​

Feel free to contact us or complete the Grant Interest Form. We consider gifts or projects that align with our mission and the legacy of Robert W. Plaster.

​​

Do you provide grants to institutions outside Missouri?

​

Yes. Our geographic focus is generally the Midwest, Heartland, and the South, spanning from the Rocky to Appalachian Mountains and from the northern to the southern border.

​

Do you provide grants for endowments, operating budgets, or scholarships?

​

​Our Founder chose to focus his Foundation on capital projects as a way of broadening the impact of grants given and to help more students at a time.  As such, we do not fund endowments, operating budgets, or scholarships.
