Considering applying for a Strategic Project grant from the Murdock Trust? Watch our informational webinars below to help you determine if your project aligns with our current priorities before investing time in a Letter of Inquiry (LOI). 

These webinars were originally recorded in March 2026, just before our first 2026 LOI submission period opened. We made a few adjustments to eligibility and process prior to the July 2026 LOI submission cycle, and those updates are noted within the recordings below.

These sessions are intended to provide clarity and save nonprofits time. We recommend watching the General Grantmaking session, as well as the session for your organization's focus area. Additionally, you can find answers to common Strategic Project FAQs on LOI preparation, submission guidelines, and collaborative projects in our follow up blog. 

This series covers Strategic Projects only. Programs, convenings, and initiative grants are not discussed. 

Not sure which webinar applies to your organization? Review our eligibility guidelines to determine which funding area aligns with your organization. Be sure to note the "last updated" date as eligibility changes periodically.
