Ideal Applicant
Established New York-based health or human‑services charities with an existing relationship or referral into the foundation’s network and a need for general operating support.
Good Fit
- • Organization is a hospital, health charity, or major human‑services nonprofit based in New York.
- • Has an existing relationship, referral, or prior engagement with the foundation’s trustees or current grantees.
- • Seeks general operating support at the grant sizes observed (~$25K–$60K).
- • Track record of stable operations and capacity to be a recurring grantee.
Geography
In the latest year all grants were paid to organizations in a single state (New York), indicating a narrow geographic footprint.
Recipient Variety
Each year the foundation made six grants to six distinct charities across hospitals and human‑services groups, with most recipients recurring across years but at least occasional new entrants.
New Applicants
Observed giving is heavily repeatable (five of six recipients returned in 2024) and the foundation’s materials state it funds only preselected applicants, which together suggest low likelihood that an unfamiliar applicant could enter the portfolio.
