Ideal Applicant
Small-to-midsize charities that operate in New York (or have strong NY connections), especially those that run charitable events or align with health, Jewish-community, educational, or disaster-relief causes and can be nominated or introduced by an existing contact.
Good Fit
- • Organization has an established presence or program in New York.
- • Seeks support for a charitable event, unrestricted operating support, or a named relief/legacy fund.
- • Has a prior relationship or can be introduced by a current grantee or mutual contact.
- • Is similar in mission to past recipients (health charities, Jewish organizations, community service or education nonprofits).
Geography
Grants span several states but are strongly concentrated in New York, which accounted for about 83% of giving in the latest year, so the footprint is regional with a clear NY focus.
Recipient Variety
The foundation funded many distinct independent recipients across the observed years (10 recipients in the latest year and more in prior years), indicating a broadly distributed recipient set despite dollar concentration to a few large grants.
New Applicants
Behavior shows a substantive share of new grantees (about half of recipients in the latest year and a higher new-recipient rate in prior years), but the foundation’s stated practice of funding only preselected applicants and the absence of a public application process make open access unlikely without referral.
