How to apply
Its grants go to individuals, not organizations. Every grant in its 2024 filing was paid to an individual (for example a scholarship or assistance with costs), so it is not a funding prospect for a nonprofit.
Society for the Study of Symbolic says in its IRS filing that it only makes contributions to preselected organizations, so unsolicited applications are unlikely to be considered. Organizations it funds are usually invited.
