Foundation - Grants

The Rylee + Cru Foundation grant program supports 501(c)(3) non-profit organizations that positively impact children, mothers, and families in need. Our foundation is rooted in the idea of philanthro-capitalism, which means businesses have the ability to create support and financial resources for those in need, allowing us to be better neighbors and citizens through action. Since 2017, we have been committed to making a difference in our communities. We are filled with gratitude and appreciation for our team, family, and community. Because of you, we are able to give back.

A 501(c)(3) organization is a tax-exempt non-profit entity recognized by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) in the United States. These organizations operate for specific purposes, including charitable, educational, religious, scientific, or literary activities. As a result of their tax-exempt status, 501(c)(3) organizations can receive tax-deductible donations from individuals and corporations, incentivizing charitable giving. This designation allows these organizations to focus their resources on their missions, supporting communities, and addressing various social issues without the burden of federal income tax.

Anyone in our community is eligible to recommend a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that aligns with our mission to support families and children in need. This includes individuals, families, and groups who are passionate about making a difference and have a connection to a non-profit doing impactful work. We believe that everyone has the potential to identify organizations worthy of support, and we encourage broad participation to ensure a diverse range of recommendations.

Once you submit your recommendation, a designated team member will review it and keep you updated on its status throughout the selection process. You will be informed of the final outcome, whether your recommended organization was selected for the grant or not. We value transparency and communication, so you can expect to receive updates via email or through our community channels.

Currently, there is no limit to the number of recommendations you can submit. We encourage you to share as many deserving organizations as you believe should be considered for a grant. Each recommendation contributes to our mission of supporting families and children in need, and we welcome your enthusiasm in identifying non-profits that align with our values. Your input plays a crucial role in helping us make meaningful contributions to the community.

Absolutely! You can recommend any 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, regardless of its geographical location, as long as it supports children, mothers, and families in need. We believe that impactful work can happen anywhere, and our mission extends beyond local boundaries.
