Hanley Family Foundation
This organization is a private foundation that focuses on charitable giving, specifically in the area of human services. Its mission is inferred from its support of organizations like the Phoenix Rescue Mission, which provides services to the homeless. The foundation primarily serves populations in need through its funding of charitable initiatives. Its activities are concentrated in Arizona, where it has made its charitable contributions.

Ideal Applicant
A small Arizona-based human services or homeless-services nonprofit with an existing relationship or visibility to the foundation or its trustee.
Good Fit
- • Local (Arizona, Phoenix-area) homelessness or direct-service program.
- • Request for a small project or program-specific grant (sub-$5K scale).
- • Prior connection or referral to the foundation trustee or known intermediaries.
- • Clear, time-limited use of funds rather than large operating support requests.
Geography
Observed giving in the latest year was fully concentrated in Arizona, with the single grant directed to an organization in Phoenix.
Recipient Variety
In the latest available year the foundation reported one grant to one distinct recipient; the small observed sample limits claims about longer-term variety.
New Applicants
The foundation explicitly indicates it funds only preselected applicants and there is no public website or contact route; because only one year is available, long-term turnover cannot be tested but visible cues point to low likelihood for unfamiliar applicants.
