Apply for Les Paul Foundation's Grant Program (US)

The Les Paul Foundation is now accepting applications for its Grant Program. This program supports innovative and creative projects aligned with the Foundation's mission.

Priorities

Grants from the Les Paul Foundation prioritize:

• Programs and projects that align with the Foundation's mission: inspiring innovative and creative thinking by sharing the legacy of Les Paul through support of music education, recording, innovation, and medical research related to tinnitus through the Hearing Health Foundation.
• Innovative and effective ways to share Les Paul’s story. The Foundation requires more than just naming their name on a program or plaque; a detailed plan on how Les Paul’s story will be shared is needed.
• Demonstrating additional funding from sources beyond the Les Paul Foundation.
• Realistic initial funding requests to establish a relationship with the Foundation.
