Ideal Applicant
Small-to-mid sized charities working in animal welfare/conservation, marine research, or services for the blind/disabled, especially organizations that match past funded purposes and can plausibly be known to the foundation.
Good Fit
- • Programs focused on animal rescue, sanctuaries, wildlife rehabilitation, marine research, or services for people who are blind or disabled.
- • Track record or existing relationship with the foundation or its network (repeat grantees are common).
- • Budget and request size consistent with observed grants (roughly $5K–$45K).
- • Geographic presence in Florida or visibility to trustees who make preselection decisions.
Geography
Observed grants in the latest year went to recipients in six states, indicating a multi-state footprint despite a concentrated share to Florida (about 37%).
Recipient Variety
The foundation funded 11 distinct, independent recipients in the latest year across multiple purpose areas, but the portfolio shows a high repeat rate and financial concentration among the top five grantees.
New Applicants
Based on two years of history, most grants (10 of 11 in 2023) were to returning recipients and the foundation states it funds only preselected organizations, so unfamiliar applicants are unlikely to enter the portfolio without an introduction or relationship.
