Ideal Applicant
Small local or regional nonprofits (education, faith-based, community clubs) with a clear connection to the foundation's community or trustees seeking modest operating support.
Good Fit
- • Programs in education, faith-based services, or community engagement.
- • Established presence or ties in the foundation's home state (NY) or known trustee networks.
- • Requests for modest operating or program support in the $1k–$2k range.
- • Introductions or nominations from trusted local intermediaries or current grantees.
Geography
In the latest year grants went to recipients in NY, DC, and TN, but 61% of dollars and a majority of grants stayed in the foundation's home state, indicating a primarily local/regional footprint with some out-of-state giving.
Recipient Variety
The most recent year shows five distinct, seemingly independent recipients (a social club, coalition, charities, a school, and a hospital), which indicates a modestly varied recipient set for a micro private foundation; this conclusion is limited to the latest observed year.
New Applicants
The foundation explicitly declares it funds only preselected applicants and no public application route or contact information was found; although all 2023 recipients were new relative to 2022, direct evidence suggests unsolicited applicants are unlikely to gain entry without nomination or a trustee-mediated introduction.
