Grant Requests
Currently we have a backlog of grant requests from organizations with which our board members are intimately involved, and we are not accepting new requests at this time. This will change later this year and we will have a formal grant request application for you to fill out at this site.
One thing to note is that RetailROI is only allowed to provide grants to qualified charities – not individuals – so proof of that 501 (c)3 status will be required as part of the process. International charities are certainly supported by RetailROI, however, we prefer to do this through a US-based charity as an intermediary. This helps to expedite the research time and allows for maximum donation amount to go towards helping the children, rather that research or overhead to verify the international charity.
One important note: We only consider grant requests that are submitted by someone in the US Retail Industry who is personally involved with the charity and will stake their reputation on the integrity of the charity. This person must be personally involved.
