Conflict of Interest Policy

The Legacy Foundation maintains a Conflict of Interest Policy for its staff and Board to ensure independence and integrity in its grant recommendations. Staff and Board members may not accept any form of compensation, gifts, or favors from any organization or representative that anticipates submitting a grant proposal to the Foundation, has submitted a proposal, or has received a grant.

Additionally, the staff and Board of the Foundation may not accept free invitations to fund-raising events or participate in feasibility studies.  Efforts to influence staff or Board outside the stated application process will result in a dis-favorable recommendation or even disqualification of the grant request.  

Please be respectful of the burden of responsibility that those making funding decisions face and do not place additional pressure upon them – it will only work to your disadvantage.
