Skyler Foundation 

Restricts giving to Ohio, primarily Cincinnati where located. Supports a wide variety of interests, including astronomy, education (K-12), and higher education. Focuses on academics, children/youth, students, and economically disadvantaged people. Initial approach to Foundation is a 1-page letter; there are no deadlines. Grants range from $5,000 - $125,000 (organizations serving K-12 audiences are receiving the largest grants). Schiff, the foundation contact, is affiliated with Ohio State (managed by Athletics); has not funded OSU through the family foundation. 

The Monticello College Foundation

Exists to further women’s education. Fields of interest include higher education and science and the foundation awards grants nationally in support of endowments, fellowships, internships, research, and scholarships. Grants range from $5,000 - $337,000, with the majority in the $10,000 - $25,000 range. The foundation will field calls/requests for information. Proposals are brief (2 pages max), to be accompanied by several attachments, and are submitted via USPS/courier. They receive applications twice a year (2/28 & 8/31) in advance of spring and fall board meetings where decisions are made.

Fondation H. Dudley Wright

The Foundation supports innovative ideas, programs and mechanisms that serve their Mission: advancing public awareness of science and the value of science education. Accepts proposals for charitable, educational, or scientific purposes, primarily from entities and individuals engaged in science education and research, including educational institutions and intergovernmental organizations. While grants are primarily awarded to organizations in Switzerland, they will consider applications of merit that extend the mission elsewhere. US based institutions with funding relationships include CalTech, The Planetary Society, Tufts University, and Harvey Mudd College. Initial approach is to contact the foundation and request grant guidelines. E-mail should include a brief statement about a project that is advocating broader public discourse about science education, discovery and innovation.
