Private foundations and grantmaking organizations

# Clear funding priorities and transparent governance

Applicants want to know quickly whether they are eligible and when to apply. The public, partners and regulators look for governance and evidence of impact. A foundation website should serve both with clarity. We build foundation sites on Replit with funding priorities, governance information and funded work that staff can update by describing changes to Replit Agent.

**Can applicants apply on the website?**

Yes. We connect the site to your grants platform, or build an application form into the site with secure storage.

**Should we publish all grants?**

Many foundations do, for transparency. Stories about grantees should have their permission.

**How is this different from nonprofits?**

Foundation sites focus on grantmaking and governance, not on programs and volunteers.
