Ideal Applicant
Established, mission-aligned charities — especially Tennessee-based or regionally active organizations — working in health (including cancer research), education/scholarships, or local human services and able to absorb mid‑to‑large grants and build a relationship with the foundation or its network.
Good Fit
- • Located in Tennessee or running programs with strong Tennessee impact.
- • Work in health/cancer research, higher‑education scholarships, community services, or human services.
- • Existing relationship, prior contact, or referral to the foundation or its board/trustees.
- • Organizational capacity for medium-to-large grants (six-figure awards).
- • Track record of measurable local impact or established scholarship/endowment programs.
Geography
Grants in the latest year reached recipients in nine states, but roughly three‑quarters of dollars were concentrated in Tennessee, indicating a multi‑state footprint numerically with strong financial concentration in one state.
Recipient Variety
The foundation funded 45 distinct recipients in the latest year with substantial numbers of repeat grantees (about 33 across years) plus turnover (12 new recipients in the latest year), showing a broad set of independent recipients rather than a tiny closed circle.
New Applicants
The foundation explicitly funds only preselected applicants and there is no public website or visible submission route; although some new grantees appear each year, direct entry by an unfamiliar applicant is unlikely without a referral or invitation.
