Charitable Contributions Program

Application Instructions

Section 1: How and When to Apply

Please review our 2008 guidelines and general information to determine whether your organization and the funding you would request meet the requirements. If you believe that your organization and grant request fit within those guidelines, you are welcome to submit an application.

Prior to applying for a grant, applicants should contact their local PG&E Public Affairs representative.

Section 2: Electronic Application

All applicants must use PG&E’s online grant application. PG&E will neither accept nor process grant proposals in any other format.

Section 3: Fiscal Agents

PG&E will accept proposals from fiscal agents. However, the online application must be completed by the fiscal agents and the information in the application must pertain to the fiscal agents.

Section 4: Assistance with the Online Application

Please print a copy of the application before you apply so that you can prepare whatever information you may need prior to actually completing it. Also, please keep a copy of your completed application for future reference. For questions about completing the application (e.g., What is my organization’s federal tax identification number?), please contact Doug Carrillo, Charitable Contributions Grants Administrator, at charitablecontributions@pge.com.

If you have other questions about the utility’s grantmaking process (e.g., whether your organization qualifies for a charitable donation, or determining the status of a pending application, or to introduce your organization to PG&E), please contact the PG&E staff member listed below.
