The Ballyshannon Fund

Founded by a man who spent a lifetime in the countryside, the Ballyshannon Fund is a donor-advised fund of the Charlottesville Area Community Foundation. The Ballyshannon Fund does not support capital campaigns, endowments, individuals, or bricks and mortar projects. We support educational projects and programs, only. See our previous grants for examples. Please note that in order to be eligible for Ballyshannon Fund funding, your organization must have 501(c)(3) status or be a government entity. 

Letters of inquiry are accepted twice a year.

Deadlines: February 15 and August 15
