Ideal Applicant
A small-to-midsize faith-based organization or parish seeking project-specific support (chapel, shrine, garden, or faith-driven human services) and able to submit a concise written request.
Good Fit
- • Requests tied to chapel, shrine, or other parish capital/support projects.
- • Clear written explanation of need and specific use of funds with a budget.
- • A local or in-state (Virginia) connection or established church identity.
- • Single-project or one-time grants in the small-to-mid funding range (observed grants from ~$1,000 up to ~$40,000).
- • Willingness to submit by mail to a named trustee and follow rolling submission instructions.
Geography
Grants in the latest year were recorded in three states (VA, WI, MD), but 92% of the latest-year dollars went to an in-state Virginia recipient, indicating mostly state-focused giving with occasional out-of-state awards.
Recipient Variety
The latest year shows three distinct recipients (all faith-related) and across two years recipients did not repeat, so the portfolio funds a small set of independent organizations rather than a single captive beneficiary; overall variety is moderate but limited in scale.
New Applicants
There is a visible application route (written submission to a named trustee and a rolling deadline) and the latest year funded three new recipients, so new entrants have been accepted; however the funder is selective and one large award dominated the latest-year dollars, so access is plausible but competitive.
