Ideal Applicant
A small-to-midsize registered charity seeking modest one-time or short-term program support in community services, children's health, animal welfare, veterans, seniors, or related local service areas.
Good Fit
- • Project fits community-service, children's health, animal welfare, veterans, or senior-service priorities.
- • Request size is modest (roughly $500–$5,000 / single-year).
- • Organization can provide basic tax-exempt documentation and a concise budget.
- • Willingness to apply via mail/phone and meet a Sep 30 submission deadline.
- • Track record of local service or clear program impact in a state the funder has supported.
Geography
Observed grants went to organizations in 12 states in the latest year, with substantial out-of-state giving; one state accounted for about 40% of dollars but the portfolio is clearly multi-state.
Recipient Variety
The latest year shows roughly 31 distinct recipients out of 32 grants across diverse purposes and 3 years of similar breadth, indicating a broad and independent recipient set rather than a tiny closed circle.
New Applicants
Direct evidence of entry exists: nine new recipients appeared in the latest year and the foundation publishes application instructions plus a Sep 30 deadline and a named contact, so unfamiliar applicants have a plausible path to apply.
