Note: CSUN has a policy that only one faculty across the University can apply to a foundation at a time so Josh Einhorn, COH Grants Officer, must provide you clearance before you apply.

Some smaller foundations do not have a website. Also some provide minimal contact information as they have small staff and do not want large amounts of correspondence.
