Ideal Applicant
Small or mid-sized charities that match the foundation's recurring interests (veterans services, disaster relief, local history/conservation, education, and animal rescue) and that operate in the states the foundation has funded.
Good Fit
- • Work focused on veterans, disaster relief, local history, conservation, education, or animal welfare.
- • Located in or serving states the foundation has supported (e.g., FL, NY, MA, CT, IA, CO).
- • Capacity to manage modest grants in the $500–$25,000 range.
- • Existing relationship or introduction to the foundation or its director/trustee network.
- • Evidence of program impact or a clear, tangible project that aligns with past grants.
Geography
Observed grants span multiple states (6 distinct states in the latest year) with notable giving in Florida and New York, indicating a multi-state but not national/international footprint.
Recipient Variety
Each year funds 10–13 distinct independent charities across several program areas, but dollars are heavily concentrated (the top five received 83% in the latest year), so the portfolio shows moderate variety with financial concentration.
New Applicants
Direct evidence of new grantees exists (five new recipients in the latest year), but the foundation states it pays only preselected recipients and there is no public website or submission contact, so unsolicited applicants have an uncertain but non-zero chance of entry.
