Ideal Applicant
An established hospital, clinic, university, or scholarship-administrating nonprofit serving the U.S. Virgin Islands with proposals for medical equipment, nursing training, or scholarships.
Good Fit
- • Organization is located in or primarily serves the U.S. Virgin Islands.
- • Request is for medical equipment, nursing extern/training programs, or scholarships.
- • Applicant is an established nonprofit or hospital able to receive institutional grants.
- • Proposal requests in the typical grant size range (tens of thousands of dollars).

Geography
Observed giving in recent years is concentrated entirely in the U.S. Virgin Islands despite the foundation being based in Florida; all grants in 2022–2023 were to recipients in the VI.
Recipient Variety
The latest year shows four distinct independent recipients (hospitals and a university) and recurring grantees across multiple years, indicating a moderate breadth of institutional types for a small foundation.
New Applicants
Direct evidence of recipient turnover is limited but the foundation maintains a public website with downloadable application forms, posts quarterly deadlines, provides email/phone/mailing contact, and funded at least one new recipient in the latest year, suggesting unfamiliar applicants can realistically apply.
