HOW TO APPLY

Applications to the Phyllis C. Wattis Foundation are only accepted during an open application period. The New Works application cycle is open from July 7 – 18, 2025. For more information about eligibility and to access a PDF of the New Works grant application, visit the For Grant Seekers page.​

To access the application during the application period, you will need to log in to the grants portal:

If your organization is a new applicant, please click the “Register Here” button on the left side of the grants portal login page. If your organization is a return applicant, log in on the right side of the grants portal login page.​

If you are not sure if you or your organization have an existing profile in the grants portal, if you need to be added as a contact for an organization already in the portal, or if you have any other technical difficulties or questions, please contact Tatiana Gordon, Grants Manager, at tgordon@pfs-llc.net.

Once you have logged into the grants portal:

• Review your Organization Profile and Personal Profile to ensure we have the most up-to-date information about you and your organization.
• Click “Save Draft” frequently as you work, as the system does not auto-save.
