This organization is a private foundation dedicated to making charitable contributions across various causes.

Ideal Applicant
Small or local charities (often community service or faith‑affiliated) with programs in Michigan or a nearby state that seek modest grants or project support and can be connected to the foundation’s network.
Good Fit
- • Track record of work in Michigan or demonstrated local presence.
- • Programs in community service, human services, or faith‑based education.
- • Request size in the low‑thousands range.
- • Existing relationship or introduction to the foundation’s officer or past grantees.
- • Willingness to receive invitation‑based funding rather than apply publicly.
Geography
Latest observed giving is concentrated in two states with 70% of 2024 dollars to Michigan; across years grants have reached several states but recent activity is state‑focused.
Recipient Variety
The foundation funded five distinct recipients in 2024 and has supported multiple independent charities across four years, with some repeat grantees but regular turnover (three new recipients in 2024).
New Applicants
Direct evidence shows new recipients are sometimes funded, but the foundation explicitly restricts giving to preselected recipients, there is no public application path or website, and no clear contact route, so unsolicited applicants are unlikely to break in.
