To All Grantees:Annually the Compassion Foundation accepts applications for grants at this time of year. However, we will not be accepting grant proposals now. We are currently in the process of reorganizing to strengthen our organization and developing new sources of revenue. Our ultimate goal is to grow the Compassion Foundation on several levels so that our donations can be more substantial and therefore more meaningful in the future. Thanks for your understanding and continued support.
