Ideal Applicant
Local or regional churches and community service organizations that request operational support or small scholarships and that have a connection or introduction into the foundation’s network.
Good Fit
- • Faith-based or church-affiliated organization with local ties in California (La Mesa/El Cajon area) or known connections in Oklahoma.
- • Requests for general operating support or small program support (scholarships, Meals on Wheels-type services).
- • Introductions or endorsements from existing grantees or trustees.
- • Capacity to be considered for one-off or recurring operational grants rather than large multi-year program grants.
Geography
Observed grants span two states (California and Oklahoma) with roughly half the 2024 dollars in California, indicating a regional rather than purely local footprint.
Recipient Variety
The latest year shows five distinct recipients (four new in 2024) and prior years show a small set of repeat grantees, so the portfolio funds multiple independent entities but is not very large.
New Applicants
Direct evidence shows several new grantees in 2024, but the foundation declares an invitation-only/preselected application policy and no public submission route was found, so unfamiliar applicants are unlikely to enter without a prior connection.
