Ideal Applicant
Local or regional nonprofits, scholarship programs, or projects focused on youth development and compassionate leadership, especially organizations with a Maine connection or clear scholarship activities.
Good Fit
- • Operates scholarship programs or youth development initiatives.

Geography
Observed giving spans multiple states (four in 2024) but is strongly concentrated in Maine, which received about two-thirds of 2024 dollars; the footprint is regional rather than national.
Recipient Variety
The foundation funded a double-digit number of distinct recipients in each observed year (24 in 2022, 13 in 2024) with a high rate of new recipients in 2024, showing a broadly distributed recipient set rather than a tiny closed circle.
New Applicants
Behavioral evidence shows many new grantees (12 new recipients in 2024) and filings include a named contact, deadline, and application instructions, so unfamiliar applicants have a clear and plausible path to enter the portfolio.
