The Kellogg Foundation does not make grants to individuals, only to 
organizations. Specific areas of programming interest are: Health, Food 
Systems, Rural Development, Youth and Education, Higher Education, and 
Philanthropy and Volunteerism. The Health area seeks to increase access 
to integrated, comprehensive health care systems organized around public 
health, prevention, and primary care. Food Systems seeks to meet the 
needs for a safe, nutritious diet while ensuring that food production 
systems are environmentally sensitive, economically viable, sustainable 
over the long term, and socially responsible. the Rural Development area 
seeks to fund collaborative, comprehensive approaches to rural 
development that emphasize community problem solving, leadership 
development, delivery of human services, and training of local government 
officials. Youth and Education seeks to improve the well-being of youth 
(prenatal through 20 years of age) through comprehensive, collaborative, 
community-based initiatives. Higher Education seeks to strengthen higher 
education and mobilize its resources to help address societal needs. 
Philanthropy and Volunteerism seeks to support change agents, in 
communities and in systems, who will improve human life by increasing 
philanthropy and volunteerism. The Foundation does not have grant 
application forms. An institution should write a one- or two-page 
preproposal letter that describes the basic problem and the plan for its 
solution.
