Ideal Applicant
A locally rooted Tennessee nonprofit (healthcare, youth services, or community service clubs) with established ties or referrals into the foundation's local network.
Good Fit
- • A program or presence in Tennessee, especially the Memphis/Covington area.
- • Focus on healthcare, youth development, or community service activities.
- • Existing local reputation or a warm introduction from a community intermediary.
- • Need for modest operating or program support rather than multi-year national initiatives.
Geography
Giving in the observed year was heavily concentrated in Tennessee (about 93% of dollars), with only two other states receiving small shares; the footprint is effectively local.
Recipient Variety
In the latest year the foundation funded 11 distinct recipients across healthcare, youth and local service clubs, showing a modestly diverse local portfolio despite dollar concentration in a single large hospital gift.
New Applicants
Direct evidence of turnover is unavailable because only one year is observed, but the foundation explicitly notes it supports only preselected applicants and made one dominant institutional gift, so unsolicited new entrants appear unlikely to gain support without a referral or invitation.
