The Roth Foundation
This organization is a private foundation dedicated to making charitable contributions across various causes. Its mission reflects a commitment to supporting Jewish community organizations, health-related charities, and community service initiatives. The foundation primarily serves organizations that promote Jewish culture and health awareness, as evidenced by its funding to groups like Chabad and the American Heart Association. While it operates on a small scale, it has a notable focus on local charities, particularly in Florida.

Ideal Applicant
A small or local nonprofit (especially Florida-based) seeking modest charitable support for community, health, or Jewish-community programming.
Good Fit
- • Organization operates in Florida or has clear local ties to the Ormond Beach/Daytona area.
- • Funding request is modest (typically under $5,000).
- • Work aligns with community service, health charities, or Jewish community support.
- • Applicant can use a mailed application or phone contact and can demonstrate local credibility or an existing relationship.
Geography
Observed giving is heavily concentrated in the foundation's home state (96% of dollars in Florida in the latest year), though the prior year included grants across many states; the pattern looks state-focused with occasional out-of-state gifts.
Recipient Variety
The latest year shows only two distinct recipients, but the prior year funded 17 unique organizations, so overall the foundation has funded a range of independent recipients across the two-year window despite a recent narrowing.
New Applicants
Direct evidence of long-term turnover is limited, but the latest year included one new grantee and the filing lists an application contact and rolling submissions, so new entrants appear possible though not clearly encouraged via a public web process.
