Inspired by Raymond James Charitable donors’ philanthropy, the Raymond James Charitable board of trustees created a grant program to provide grants to selected nonprofit organizations that exhibit a positive, enduring influence in their respective communities. 

The following criteria will be applied for this year’s grant:

• • Must be a U.S.-based 501c3
• • Latest annual expenses must be greater than $500,000 and below $3 million
• • Be in existence for more than 3 years
• • Must not be a previous recipient of this initiative (all previous grantees are listed below)
• • Must be nominated by a Raymond James associate or advisor who is engaged with the charity as a donor, board member, contributor or volunteer
• • Nominated charities may not include a school/college/university that the nominator or their children attended/attends, or a house of worship (unless the charity is being nominated for the programs they offer outside of religious services/sermons)
