Grants for Small Businesses & Nonprofits
Investing in the people and organizations who strengthen our communities
The Graham Family Foundation funds the technology, infrastructure, and everyday tools that help good work grow — so cost is never the reason a mission stalls.
Who We Are
The charitable arm of Solomon's Minds
The Graham Family Foundation (GFF) supports small businesses and nonprofit organizations by funding a wide range of business and organizational services — from technology and infrastructure to the everyday tools that help good work grow.
Our grants are designed to remove cost as a barrier so that the organizations doing important work in our communities can focus on their mission, not their overhead.
Why We Invest
Small businesses and nonprofits are the backbone of thriving communities
They create local jobs, deliver essential services, and reinvest in the neighborhoods they serve — yet they're often the least able to absorb the cost of the tools they need to compete and grow.
Local Jobs
Small organizations hire locally and keep opportunity close to home.
Essential Services
From storefronts to service programs, they meet daily needs in the neighborhoods they serve.
Reinvestment
Dollars earned stay in the community and compound over time.
Available Grants
