Ideal Applicant
Mid‑sized charitable organizations similar to the current grantees (arts institutions, educational institutions, community service organizations and local churches), often with an existing relationship or local presence in Illinois.
Good Fit
- • History or presence in Illinois or close regional ties to the funder’s primary service area.
- • Mission alignment with arts, education, community services, or local civic groups as reflected in prior grantees.
- • Capacity to absorb an unrestricted/general support grant in the mid‑range ($10k–$75k).
- • An existing relationship or referral from a current grantee, trustee, or PNC Bank contact.
Geography
Grants appear across five states (including DC, NY and VA) but giving is concentrated in Illinois, which received roughly 55% of dollars in the latest year.
Recipient Variety
The foundation funded 11 distinct organizations in the latest year across arts, education, community service and religious institutions, showing moderate institutional variety even though dollars are concentrated among the top recipients.
New Applicants
Behavioral evidence shows the same 11 recipients in both observed years and the fund declares it only supports preselected recipients, so unfamiliar applicants have a low likelihood of entering the portfolio based on the available history.
