Ideal Applicant
Small to mid-sized charities that deliver direct services in health, veterans/military families, education, or basic needs and that seek modest project or scholarship support.
Good Fit
- • Programs serving veterans, active-duty military families, or military spouses.
- • Direct-service health initiatives, mental health supports, or vision/medical access projects.
- • Requests for modest one‑time project funding or small scholarships (~$1K–$5K).
- • Ability to meet an application via the Foundation Source portal and a specific annual deadline.
- • Geographic flexibility or presence in states the funder has supported (notably VT, FL, CO and others).
Geography
Observed grants in the latest year reached about 18 states, showing a multi-state national footprint even though one state (Vermont) received a larger share (~30%).
Recipient Variety
The foundation funded roughly 35–39 distinct organizations each year (39 in 2024), across a mix of causes and independent charities rather than a tiny closed circle.
New Applicants
A public application portal and a named submission route exist, and the foundation added many new recipients in recent years (25 new in 2023, 19 new in 2024), indicating new entrants can and do enter the portfolio.
