State Farmฎ Company Grants

State Farmฎ is committed to meeting the needs of our communities by focusing our giving in three areas: Safe Neighbors (safety), Strong Neighborhoods (community development), and Education Excellence (education). In addition, there's limited funding available to meet community-based needs.

Grant requests for local initiatives are considered by State Farm field offices. Each office determines the types of grants (outlined below) it will fund, based on available funding.

Safe Neighbors (safety)

State Farm values the importance of keeping our neighbors safe. Our funding is directed to:

  • Improving driver, vehicle, and roadway safety
  • Shielding homes from fires, criminals, and natural disasters
    Supporting disaster preparedness programs and recovery services
  • Enhancing personal financial security

Strong Neighborhoods (community development)
Communities are the foundation and lifeblood of society. The condition of available housing and services greatly affects the quality of life for residents and the stability of the community. State Farm is committed to helping maintain the vibrancy and culture of neighborhoods in various communities throughout the U.S. and Canada. We demonstrate this commitment by supporting nonprofit organizations' programs that:

  • Make housing affordable
  • Promote first-time homeownership
  • Eliminate barriers to homeownership
  • Educate homebuyers about insurance, loss mitigation, and homeownership
  • Foster sustainable communities
  • Rehabilitate neighborhoods or communities
    K-12 Public Schools

The following types of grants for K-12 Public Schools will be considered:

  • Teacher excellence programs that improve teacher quality
  • Service-Learning programs that integrate core classroom curriculum with service to the community
  • Programs that incorporate the Systemic Improvement criteria into education systems to improve overall effectiveness

(More information about State Farm's K-12 Service-Learning and Baldrige initiatives is located in Education Excellence.)

A State Farm field office may support grants for a designated college or university.

Eligible organizations
State Farm makes charitable contributions to nonprofit, tax-exempt organizations under Section 501(c)(3) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code, Canadian charitable organizations, educational institutions, and governmental entities.

In general, grants are awarded for specific programs in the giving categories described above.

Restrictions
State Farm does not fund:

  • Organizations that are not a governmental entity, a stable nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization with a diverse funding base, an educational institution, or a Canadian charitable organization
  • Individuals seeking personal help or scholarships
  • Religious programs
  • Politically partisan programs
  • Organizations outside the U.S. and Canada

Guidelines for requesting grants
State Farm uses the following criteria when reviewing requests for charitable contributions:

  • Is the organization a governmental entity, an educational institution, a stable nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization with a diverse funding base, or a Canadian charitable organization?
  • Does the program meet a community need that falls within our focus areas (Safe Neighbors/safety, Strong Neighborhoods/community development, or Education Excellence/education)?
  • Does the program yield measurable results for participants?
  • Does the program offer volunteer opportunities for State Farm associates?

Deadline: Proposals are accepted year-round and are reviewed in a timely manner. However, approval time depends on the requesting amount and completeness of the proposal. For more information and details please visit their web site.
