Ideal Applicant
Small- to mid-sized charities whose project budgets match grants in the $5k–$40k range, particularly in food security, local community services, conservation/wildfire response, or national park/conservation causes; organizations that can secure an introduction or relationship to the foundation.
Good Fit
- • Project or general operating request in the $5,000–40,000 range.
- • Work in food banks, community service, conservation, or wildfire/community resilience.
- • Located in or serving states the foundation has funded (notably Colorado, Connecticut, Minnesota, DC, Arkansas, Virginia, Massachusetts).
- • Track record or partner connection that can produce a warm introduction.
- • Readiness to receive unrestricted support or annual-fund style grants.
Geography
Observed grants in the latest year went to organizations in seven different states, including national recipients, with the largest state share around one quarter but broad multi-state coverage overall.
Recipient Variety
The foundation funded 13 distinct recipients in 2024 across multiple sectors (food security, conservation, national and local charities), with a mix of repeat grantees and new entrants, indicating a fairly broad recipient set for its size despite some dollar concentration.
New Applicants
Direct evidence shows new grantees were added in recent years (several new recipients in 2023 and 2024), but the foundation also states it accepts only preselected applicants and no public application route is visible, so entry for unfamiliar applicants appears possible but limited and primarily relationship-driven.
