The Harris and Eliza Kempner Fund has a program which provides individual directors and advisors with the opportunity to direct grants that reflect their unique charitable interests. This program comprises a small amount of the Fund’s overall grantmaking budget, and these awards do not necessarily reflect the Fund’s areas of focused grantmaking.

The Fund does not solicit nor accept applications for these discretionary grants.
