Ideal Applicant
Small to mid-sized charities (often faith-based, health-related, or local community organizations) that fit the trustees' apparent interests and operate in or have connections to the foundation's frequently funded state.
Good Fit
- • Requests for modest general‑operating support in the $1K–$5K range (with occasional larger one-off grants).
- • A presence or demonstrated connection in the state that receives most dollars from the foundation.
- • Alignment with faith-based, health-charity, or community-service activities.
- • Prior or brokered introductions to the trustees or to organizations the trustees already fund.
Geography
Observed grants in the latest year went to organizations in seven different states, indicating a multi-state footprint even though a single state received the majority of dollars.
Recipient Variety
The foundation funded a relatively large number of distinct independent recipients each year (10–16 historically, 14 in the latest year), spanning churches, health charities, and community organizations.
New Applicants
The public process is marked as 'preselected only,' which limits unsolicited access, but the latest year shows substantial turnover (half of 2024 recipients were new), so new entrants are added by the trustees even though a public application route is not available.
