Our Story

The Frist Foundation is a place-based grantmaker focused on Nashville, Tennessee. The foundation both responds to requests and acts on its own initiative in making grants aimed at having a positive impact on people’s lives. In recent years, its largest grants have gone to the Frist Art Museum and the Nashville Zoo. But we have also taken a special interest in building capacity and managerial capability of many other Nashville agencies, especially those serving vulnerable people.
