- HP foundation does not restrict grants by geographical areas. It only gives to institutions in the united states which are tax exempt under section 501(c)(3) of the internal revenue code and only for 501(c)(3) purposes outside the united states. It provides grants for programs which stress and enhance the understanding of science, engineering, technology and medicine and academic organizations in the arts and human services field when creative bridges between sciences and the humanities can be built. However, the foundation does not make philanthropic grants to: organizations which are not tax exempt; individuals, sectarian or denominational groups; agencies which practice or promote discriminatory or partisan policies, political activities, causes which offer specific direct benefits to grantors, and individual's research projects.
