At Genentech, we believe philanthropy can be a powerful driver of change, particularly when aligned with our mission of improving the health and wellbeing of all patients, regardless of race, gender, or socioeconomic status.
In addition to funding requests we receive on a rolling basis throughout the year, which you can learn more about here, we periodically solicit proposals aligned to specific needs and objectives.
IMPORTANT NOTICE:
Due to our 2026 year-end close process, the Genentech Funding Request System will stop accepting charitable requests at 12:00 AM PT, November 26, 2026 and will reopen for requests on Monday, January 4, 2027.
This temporary closure affects Health, Patient, and Science Focused Giving, Education Focused Giving K-12 and Higher Education, and Community Giving. Independent Medical Education and Independent Co-pay Assistance Foundation will continue to accept requests during this time.
It is important to note the Genentech Funding Request System cannot accept requests less than 60 days prior to the event/program start date. Therefore, once the system re-opens, we will not accept charitable contribution requests for an event or program occurring before March 4, 2027.
Pending charitable requests with event/program dates beginning in January 2027 or beyond may receive final decision in the new year.
