Ideal Applicant
Organizations conducting migraine/headache research, clinical headache programs, or national patient-education and advocacy work; typically academic medical centers, university research foundations, or national health nonprofits.
Good Fit
- • Clear focus on migraine or headache-related research, fellowships, or clinical programs.
- • Organization is an academic medical center, university research foundation, or national headache-focused charity.
- • Budget request aligned with prior grant sizes (roughly $5K–$50K, median near $13K–14K).
- • Ability to show research outcomes or clinical training impact.
Geography
Observed grants in 2023 went to recipients in 17 states and roughly 97% of dollars were awarded outside the foundation's home state, indicating a multi-state giving footprint.
Recipient Variety
The latest year shows 30 distinct recipients spanning academic medical centers, university foundations, and national headache organizations; while some repeat grantees exist, the portfolio funds a broad set of independent recipients.
New Applicants
Direct evidence of new entrants exists (6 new recipients in 2023 and 24 returning), which suggests new grantees can be admitted, but the funder provides no public application guidelines, so openness to unfamiliar applicants cannot be confirmed as high.
