Ideal Applicant
Nonprofits working in education or healthcare, including local community health providers and scholarship/education programs; local applicants in the foundation’s Pennsylvania service area and mid-size educational institutions seeking grants in the $2K–$25K range.
Good Fit
- • Programs focused on education, scholarships, or healthcare services.
- • Project or operating requests sized in the foundation’s observed grant range (roughly a few thousand to mid‑five figures).
- • Service to the named local school districts or communities the foundation prioritizes.
- • Clear alignment with the foundation’s community grant restrictions (prenatal care, dental care, mental health, pharmaceutical access).
- • Willingness to follow website application instructions and use the named contact or mailing address.
Geography
Observed giving reached nine states in the latest year with about 42% of dollars outside Pennsylvania, though Pennsylvania remained the largest single-state share at roughly 58%.
Recipient Variety
The latest year shows twenty distinct grantees, many new entrants (17 new recipients), and only three repeat recipients across the two observed years, indicating a broad and diverse recipient set for the foundation’s size.
New Applicants
Direct evidence of new entrants is strong (17 new recipients in the latest year) and the foundation publishes application information and a named contact on its website, so unfamiliar applicants appear plausibly able to access funding.
