Elias Family Charitable Foundation
This organization is a private foundation focused on supporting local community needs and youth development. Its mission is reflected in its funding of various initiatives, including donations to community centers, support for scouting programs, and assistance to faith-based organizations. The foundation primarily serves local populations through its contributions to organizations like the Chabad Student Center and the Gulf Stream Council BSA. While it has a history of making charitable disbursements, recent years have seen a decrease in grant activity.

Ideal Applicant
A small, local Florida nonprofit (community center, scouting council, or faith‑based student center) with an existing local relationship or introduction to the trustees.
Good Fit
- • Located in Florida with demonstrable work in community centers, youth programs, or faith‑based student services.
- • Existing relationship or introduction to one of the trustees or known local intermediaries.
- • Project scale matching prior grants (single grants in the low thousands to low ten‑thousands).
- • History of serving the same communities or populations named in past purposes (student centers, scouts, local community needs).
Geography
The most recent filing year shows no grants, limiting current geographic evidence; prior paid years listed recipients in Florida, but the recent absence of awards makes the footprint uncertain.
Recipient Variety
Observed paid years show grants to only a small number of distinct organizations (three recipients in the earlier filings), indicating a narrowly distributed recipient set for the foundation's size.
New Applicants
The foundation's materials indicate it funds only preselected applicants and there is no visible public application or contact route; direct evidence of turnover or acceptance of unfamiliar applicants is lacking.
