Ideal Applicant
An individual scholarship applicant who graduated from Copley or Revere high school (or a high school office submitting on their behalf), or a small local charity aligned with one-off educational or health needs.
Good Fit
- • Applicant is a graduate of Copley or Revere high school and resides in the specified school district.
- • Request is for a scholarship or individual educational support in the $1k–$6k range.
- • Application is routed and endorsed by the relevant high school guidance office.
- • Request is consistent with small, one-time awards rather than multi-year program funding.
Geography
Latest-year giving was concentrated in the foundation's home state (about 56% of dollars) but grants were paid to recipients across five states, indicating a state-centered but not strictly local footprint.
Recipient Variety
Thirteen distinct recipients were funded in the available year, mostly individual scholarship recipients with one charitable grant, so the portfolio is diverse in recipient identity but narrow in purpose (primarily scholarships).
New Applicants
Direct evidence of multi-year turnover is unavailable, but a clear application mechanism exists: applications are prepared and submitted via the two named high schools and the foundation provides a mailing/phone contact, which indicates eligible new applicants (graduates of those schools) can enter the pool.
