Ideal Applicant
A small to mid-sized charity with programs in mental health, cancer or medical research, Jewish community services, or local social services that has an existing relationship or can secure a direct introduction to the foundation's officers.
Good Fit
- • Programmatic alignment with mental health, suicide prevention, cancer research, or Jewish community support.
- • Local or regional presence in states the foundation has funded (notably New Jersey and New York).
- • Track record of past small-to-midsize grants and the ability to steward a $500–$10,000 award.
- • An existing connection or referral to one of the named officers or previous grantee relationships.
Geography
Observed grants in the latest year were distributed across five states (including NJ, NY, UT, CA and FL), and most dollars flowed to out-of-state recipients rather than only the foundation's home state.
Recipient Variety
The latest year shows six distinct independent recipients and prior years show between five and eleven recipients, indicating a modestly diverse recipient set for a micro private foundation, though dollars are heavily concentrated in a few top grants.
New Applicants
Although the foundation's filings state it funds only preselected applicants and no public application route is listed, observed history includes multiple new recipients in recent years, so unsolicited access appears limited but not impossible.
