Charitas Foundation
The Charitas Foundation (Wayne, PA) operates a site describing its mission to fund education, anti-human trafficking efforts, and the arts. The site lists board members and organizations supported and provides a contact form. The foundation's public tax filings (EIN 27-4738936) match the organization and leadership shown on the site.

Ideal Applicant
An established education-focused institution or scholarship program with ties to the foundation's community or trustees, especially in Pennsylvania.
Good Fit
- • Requests that fund scholarships or student support.
- • An established nonprofit or accredited institution (community college or university).
- • Existing relationship or introduction from a current grantee or a trustee.
- • Located in Pennsylvania or demonstrably connected to the foundation's local network.
Geography
Observed grants went to organizations in two states (Pennsylvania and Mississippi) but roughly two-thirds of 2024 dollars stayed in Pennsylvania, indicating a regional (state-centered) footprint rather than a national one.
Recipient Variety
In the latest year the foundation made two grants to two distinct recipients and both recipients were repeats from the prior year; while 2023 included four recipients, the recent pattern shows a small, recurring set of grantees and limited observed recipient diversity.
New Applicants
The foundation and its filings indicate it only funds preselected applicants, and no new recipients were added in 2024 while both 2024 grantees were returning recipients, so unfamiliar applicants appear unlikely to join the portfolio.
