Who We Are
The Do it Best Foundation supports not-for-profit community organizations and agencies that are committed to serving the needs of others. Our belief in serving others as we would like to be served guides us to help those who need it most. We are committed to help build the best communities to live, work, and play.
Areas of Focus
In creating the Do it Best Foundation, we have identified four focus areas where we can positively impact our community:
Health & Wellness
Ensuring we have adequate resources to support the growth of healthy children and their families.
Youth Enrichment
Encouraging developmental, educational, and extracurricular activities to strengthen the minds and bodies of children and prepare them for successful futures.
The Arts
Supporting a vibrant culture displayed through creativity.
The Community
Developing stronger connections among our citizens and building a greater appreciation for what makes our neighborhoods and towns unique and worth enhancing.
Apply for a Grant
The Do it Best Foundation awards grants to nonprofit organizations that align with our focus areas. If you are a 501(c)(3) organization, you may apply for a grant from the Do it Best Foundation. The Foundation’s evaluation committee and board of directors reviews and approves requests for grants.
The Do it Best Foundation is more committed than ever to help build the best communities. We’ve partnered with the Community Foundation of Greater Fort Wayne to streamline our application process and we’ve expanded our grantmaking to quarterly review to ensure we’re responding even faster to community needs all across the country. Grant deadlines for 2024 are February 23, May 31, August 30, and November 22. Grants are reviewed and applicants are notified within 30 days of the submission deadline.
