Empowering Your Nonprofit to Make a Real Difference.
Investing in Nevada’s charities to foster meaningful change in community education, health, wellness, and beyond.
Founded in 2024, The Joanne Owen Foundation is a private grantmaking organization that supports public charities in Nevada. Our vision is a stronger, more compassionate Nevada where every worthy cause has the support it needs to thrive. We are committed to empowering charitable organizations in the state to work towards a brighter future for Nevada.
The Foundation accepts and reviews applications on a rolling basis, and issues major grants annually in June. If you represent a Nevada public charity with needs that match our vision, we invite you to complete a Grant Application Form.
