Ideal Applicant
A New Jersey–based community outreach or education nonprofit (often small, faith-based, or culturally focused) seeking one-time or modest operating/project support and local partnership visibility.
Good Fit
- • Located in New Jersey or serving NJ communities.
- • Programs in community outreach, education, or local human services.
- • Connections or referrals from local grantees, churches, or community leaders.
- • Request sizes in the small-to-midsize range (typical grants under $10K, with occasional larger awards).
- • Cultural or Korean-American community focus or partnerships with local Korean organizations.
Geography
Observed giving is heavily concentrated in New Jersey (about 85% of dollars) with only two other states receiving small shares; the footprint is effectively local/regional.
Recipient Variety
The latest year shows 51 distinct recipients with a high share of newcomers (45 new grantees), and only six repeat recipients across the three-year window, indicating a broad and diverse recipient set despite some dollar concentration among the top awards.
New Applicants
Behavior shows many new grantees in the latest year, so new entrants have been funded, but the foundation explicitly restricts grants to preselected recipients and no public application route or contact details were found, suggesting access is invitation-driven rather than open.
