Opportunity Overview
The Byron and Alice Lockwood Foundation is accepting 2026 grant requests through September 30, 2026. The Foundation evaluates requests in three categories: education, health, and human services. It states that awards to organizations outside King County, Washington are rare.
Funding and Deadline
Most awarded grant requests range from $5,000 to $30,000. Grant requests for 2026 are accepted until September 30, 2026. The Foundation does not publish a submission time or time zone on its current grant guidance, so Atlas does not infer one.
Applicant and Geographic Controls
The Foundation directs applicants to use its Google Forms grant request process and requires every request to provide a 990 tax form. Its current guidance emphasizes concise organization and request summaries, expected outcomes, historical impact, demonstrated performance, and efficient use of funds. The Foundation states that it is rare to award grants to organizations outside King County, Washington.
Application Requirements
The current application guidance identifies organization summary, request summary, expected outcomes, and historical impact as primary review sections. The linked application questions also request the grant amount, annual budget, percent of budget allocated to programs, major contributors and contributions, executive director information, a link to the organization’s 990, and an optional link to additional documents. Applications are submitted through the Foundation’s Google Form.
Match and Cost Share
The Foundation’s current published guidance does not state a mandatory applicant match or cost share requirement. Atlas does not infer one.
Atlas Strategic Analysis
Atlas Opportunity Score: 84/100. This is a legitimate current health funding opportunity for established King County organizations that can document historical performance and financial stewardship. N9+ Fit: 35/100 conditional. The Foundation’s public guidance is broad and does not specifically identify telehealth, remote examination, diagnostic equipment, or medical technology as preferred uses, so no device or platform fit should be assumed without an applicant defined project and Foundation acceptance of the proposed cost. Dr. Miltie direct applicant fit is 0/100.
Next Action
Identify King County health organizations with a current 990, strong operating history, a defined health project, and no prior same opportunity outreach. Before any applicant outreach, verify the organization, recipient, CRM opt out and bounce status, prior send history, and the exact organization specific funding use.
