Can a foundation be sued for denying a grant? 

Yes. A rejected applicant can claim the decision was discriminatory or improper. The claim does not need merit to require a defense, and legal costs add up fast. Directors and officers liability covers the cost of defending your board, which is why it is the first policy most foundations buy.
