Ideal Applicant
A California-based small or community nonprofit (often alumni groups, community clubs, education or cultural organizations) seeking modest, project-level support and with a local or personal connection to the foundation.
Good Fit
- • Located in California, especially Santa Clara/Silicon Valley area
- • Community service club, alumni association, education or cultural nonprofit
- • Request size in the small-dollar range (hundreds to a few thousand dollars)
- • Existing relationship or introduction to foundation leadership or prior grantees
- • Clear, concise local impact or event-specific funding need
Geography
All observed grants across the three-year window went to organizations in California and the foundation is based in Santa Clara, indicating a locally concentrated giving footprint.
Recipient Variety
Latest year shows three distinct recipients, but prior years included 6 and 8 recipients; recipients appear to be independent local nonprofits (alumni groups, community clubs, education), so the portfolio is modestly diverse for a small private foundation.
New Applicants
The foundation explicitly declares it funds only preselected applicants and the latest year shows no new recipients; while earlier years included new grantees, the stated preselection policy and repeat funding pattern make unsolicited entry unlikely.
