Ideal Applicant
A 501(c)(3) organization focused on the welfare, education, or development of underprivileged children—typically a small or mid-sized program based in New York or the surrounding region seeking grants in the $5K–$25K range and able to submit a mailed application with proof of tax-exempt status and financials.
Good Fit
- • Programs serving indigent, distressed, or underprivileged children.
- • Registered 501(c)(3) status with an exemption letter available.
- • Request size aligned with past grants (roughly $5,000–$25,000).
- • Located in New York or a neighboring state (foundation’s giving is NY-weighted).
- • Ability to submit a written application during the July 1–Oct 31 window and provide current financial statements.
Geography
Grants were made across six states in the latest year, but a clear majority of dollars (about 57%) went to organizations in a single state, indicating a regional focus rather than a national footprint.
Recipient Variety
The foundation funded 17 distinct recipients in the latest year and maintained a similar count across three years, showing a reasonably broad portfolio for a small private foundation even though some recipients recur.
New Applicants
Direct evidence of turnover is limited but present (about two new recipients in the latest year). A formal application window and written submission requirements are published, which supports access, but repeat funding dominates so entry is possible though selective.
