Ideal Applicant

Organizations aligned with corporate community priorities (education, youth services, human services) or intermediaries/DAFs that can receive corporate-directed gifts; entities with an existing relationship to the company or its employee matching program.

Good Fit

  • Works in education, youth development, or human services — areas the foundation has explicitly supported.
  • Can receive funds through a donor-advised fund or another intermediary used by the foundation.
  • Has an existing relationship or sponsorship connection with the company or its employees.
  • Is listed or recommended through the company’s employee matching or corporate giving channels.

Geography

Moderate

Giving geography has varied: the 2021 grants reached many states, 2022 covered several states, but the latest year’s giving was confined to a single state, so geographic reach is inconsistent overall.

Recipient Variety

Moderate

Recipient variety declined over the observed period (277 distinct recipients in 2021, 12 in 2022, and 1 in 2023), indicating the portfolio moved from broad distribution to recent concentration; overall variety is moderate but recently limited.

New Applicants

Restrictive

Direct evidence of recipient turnover is limited for entry-testing and the foundation’s public materials state grants are to preselected organizations; combined with the recent shift toward funding a single intermediary, unfamiliar applicants are unlikely to access funding through an open application.
