Ideal Applicant

A stable, mission-aligned nonprofit—often faith-based or human-services oriented—already known to the foundation or operating in the foundation's core states (especially Texas and Colorado) seeking general operating support in the $25k–$75k range.

Good Fit

  • Established faith-based or youth/human-services mission
  • Existing relationship or introduction to board members or recurring grantees
  • Programs or presence in Texas or Colorado (or multi-state footprint including those states)
  • Requesting general operating support or flexible funding
  • Organizational track record consistent with recurring multi-year grants

Geography

Broad

Grants were distributed across eight states in the latest year, showing multi-state reach, though nearly half of total dollars were concentrated in the foundation's home state.

Recipient Variety

Broad

The latest year shows 18 distinct recipients (and similar counts in the prior year), so the foundation funds a fairly broad set of independent organizations despite moderate concentration among the top five grantees.

New Applicants

Restrictive

Observed behavior and application notes indicate an invitation-only model with high repeat funding (15 returning grantees) and only three new grantees in 2023; direct evidence that unfamiliar applicants can join the portfolio is lacking.
