Ideal Applicant
A small-to-mid local New Jersey nonprofit working in education, health, social services, youth development, or arts that seeks modest program or project support.
Good Fit
- • Organization is located and active in New Jersey.
- • Project aligns with education, health, social services, youth, or arts priorities.
- • Request size fits small grants (roughly $500–$6,000).
- • Has local visibility or existing relationships with the bank or community partners.
- • Can be invited or preselected to apply through the foundation’s Blackbaud portal.
Geography
All observed grants in the latest year went to recipients in New Jersey, with the foundation’s giving concentrated entirely in-state.
Recipient Variety
The latest year shows 104 distinct recipients across many mission areas and program types, indicating a broad and diverse local recipient set for the foundation’s size.
New Applicants
Direct evidence is limited to a single tax year, but the foundation explicitly marks funding as limited to preselected applicants; while an online application exists, behavioral and application-policy signals point to low likelihood that an unfamiliar applicant will be admitted without invitation.
