State Farm grant application process
State Farm charitable funding is offered through an invitation only process each year.
If you did not receive an invitation to submit a community grant, support requests for programs that meet grant focus areas can be submitted here. You will be asked to identify the appropriate focus area and outline specific programming for review and consideration. State Farm prefers to support programs that have long-term, sustainable impact in the areas of Safety, Education, and Community Development.
This questionnaire is designed to ensure that programming fits the State Farm community grant funding guidelines. You will be contacted if additional information related to your request is needed or State Farm is interested in pursuing a grant relationship. State Farm receives a large number of requests each year and regrettably we are unable to support or respond to every request.
