Ideal Applicant
A mid‑sized, mission-aligned charity—often faith‑based or community service oriented—with programs in South Florida (or partnerships there) and the capacity to manage $50k–$250k grants.
Good Fit
- • Faith‑based or community service mission similar to existing grantees.
- • Program presence or partnership in Florida, especially the Fort Lauderdale area.
- • Organizational capacity for mid‑to‑large grants (typical awards in the $50k–$250k range).
- • Introductions or referral from an existing grantee, funder intermediary, or local connector.
- • Clear, trackable program impact and disciplined financial stewardship.
Geography
Giving is concentrated in Florida (about two‑thirds of dollars) but the latest year shows grants across four states, so the footprint is multi‑state with a strong Florida focus.
Recipient Variety
The latest year funded 12 distinct recipients and most grantees were new that year; across four observed years there is low long‑term repetition, indicating a broad and changing recipient set.
New Applicants
Behavior shows many new grantees each year (10 of 12 in the latest year), suggesting new entrants can be added, but the foundation also states it only funds preselected applicants—so unsolicited access is uncertain.
