We Fund the Future of the Shooting Sports Thanks to the Amazing Efforts of our Friends of NRA Committees!

The NRA Foundation provides financial support to eligible projects, programs and organizations through its grant program.

Each year, volunteer Friends of NRA committees from across the country tirelessly raise charitable dollars and generous donors make gifts that are in turn awarded as grants in support of educational and public service programs relating to the shooting sports in our communities.

The General Focus of Foundation Grants is to:

  • Promote, advance and encourage firearms, shooting sports and hunting safety
  • Educate individuals with respect to firearms, firearms history, participation in the shooting sports, hunting safety, and marksmanship
  • Conduct research in furtherance of improved firearms safety and marksmanship facilities and techniques
