The Aflalo Family Foundation
This organization is a private foundation focused on providing support primarily for religious and community initiatives. Its mission centers around enhancing community services and supporting faith-based organizations, as evidenced by its funding of local Chabad centers. The foundation serves the broader community by fostering religious and community engagement. Although it is based in California, its funding activities reflect a commitment to supporting specific religious communities rather than a wide geographic distribution.

Ideal Applicant
A small, California-based faith or community organization with programs in religious and community support and local connections to the foundation's network.
Good Fit
- • Local presence in California, especially within the same metro/region as prior grantees.
- • Religious or community-support programming similar to prior grants (faith-based community services).
- • Request sizes in the small-grant range (roughly a few thousand dollars).
- • Known relationships or introductions to the foundation's officers or local community leaders.
Geography
Observed active giving (2022) was confined to California; both grants in the active year were in-state, indicating a local geographic footprint.
Recipient Variety
The only observed grant year shows two distinct recipients and across the three-year window the total funded recipient pool is very small, so the observed recipient set is limited.
New Applicants
The foundation's default application is explicitly for preselected applicants and there is no public application or contact information; combined with limited and intermittent grantmaking, this suggests unfamiliar applicants are unlikely to gain entry.
