The Cleveland H. Dodge Foundation is dedicated to continuing its philanthropic legacy by supporting underserved communities, with a particular emphasis on education. Its mission is to fund organizations that provide vital services to these communities, prioritizing educational initiatives, capacity building for community organizations, professional development, and innovative solutions that address educational needs.
The Cleveland H. Dodge Foundation Grant aims to support organizations that make significant contributions to underserved communities, specifically focusing on enhancing educational outcomes. The grant supports a variety of initiatives, including capacity-building grants for community organizations, results-driven educational programs, professional development opportunities for teachers, innovative digital education solutions, and extensive after-school and out-of-school programs. While the Foundation primarily considers projects within these focus areas, longstanding partners of the Foundation or those with a history of support from the Dodge family may be considered for grants outside these guidelines.
