Ideal Applicant

A Washington-based charity or faith‑based organization with an established local track record in homeless services, human services, youth programs, or humanitarian relief, and existing relationships or introductions into the foundation’s network.

Good Fit

  • Programs serving King County or other Washington communities (homeless services, food/meals, family emergency aid).
  • An established nonprofit with prior operating history and audited/990 documentation.
  • Existing ties or referrals from local charity leaders, clergy, or previously funded organizations.
  • Capacity to manage mid-size grants (several thousand to six figures) and to report outcomes.

Geography

Restrictive

Observed giving is overwhelmingly Washington‑focused (about 98% of dollars) with only one small out‑of‑state grant, so the practical footprint is local to the state/region.

Recipient Variety

Moderate

The latest year shows ten distinct independent recipients across homelessness, youth, and faith‑based service providers, but grant dollars are financially concentrated in a few large awards, producing a moderate breadth of recipients.

New Applicants

Restrictive

Across three years the foundation largely funds returning grantees (nine of ten in 2024), only one new recipient appeared in 2024, and the foundation states it funds only preselected applicants, so unfamiliar applicants appear unlikely to break into the portfolio without introductions.
