Frequently Asked Questions
How often are new grants and scholarships posted?
New opportunities are posted throughout the year as our fund holders make them available. There is no fixed annual cycle. Sign up for email notifications below to be alerted the moment something new opens.
Is there a fee to apply?
No. All grant and scholarship applications through the Anthony Spano Foundation are completely free. You should never be asked to pay to apply for any listing on this page.
Who reviews and selects recipients?
Each grant or scholarship is reviewed by the fund holder or a committee they designate. ASF provides administrative oversight to ensure all awards comply with IRS guidelines and the fund’s stated charitable purpose.
Can I apply for more than one opportunity at the same time?
Yes. You may apply for any open opportunity you are eligible for. Each application is reviewed independently — applying for one does not affect your consideration for any other.
