Ideal Applicant
Organizations offering community programs, education, food access, workforce development, arts, emergency services, or intermediary platforms that can work with corporate giving and employee-matching mechanisms.
Good Fit
- • Programs serving communities where Air Products employees live or work (strong in-state presence in Pennsylvania).
- • Requests sized for small-to-mid grants or sponsorships (many $5K–$25K awards and some larger multi-year partnerships).
- • Opportunities that integrate employee engagement, matching gifts, or event sponsorships.
- • Clear program or operating support requests aligned with listed focus areas (education, community investment, health, arts).
- • Ability to receive funds through national intermediaries or corporate platforms (e.g., GlobalGiving, Charities Aid Foundation, Benevity).
Geography
Observed giving in the latest year spans 34 states and includes international channels, so the footprint is multi-state; however nearly half of dollars stayed in Pennsylvania.
Recipient Variety
In the latest year the foundation funded hundreds of organizations (467 grants to 337 distinct recipients), including many small grants and a broad mix of nonprofit types, indicating a wide recipient set.
New Applicants
Direct application information is public (Benevity) and filings show 194 new recipients in the latest year, so unfamiliar applicants have a demonstrably plausible path to receive funding.
