Ideal Applicant
A New York–based nonprofit (health, local hospital, school, arts organization, or community service/first-responder group) with local credibility or a board-level introduction.
Good Fit
- • Located in New York state, especially on Long Island or NYC-area communities mentioned in filings.
- • Mission in health, hospitals/clinics, education, arts, or local community services.
- • Modest one-time or small program funding requests (thousands rather than hundreds of thousands).
- • Existing relationship, referral, or prior visibility to the foundation’s trustees or local network.
- • History of receiving repeat small-to-mid sized grants from private foundations.
Geography
Giving is tightly concentrated in New York: the latest year shows 100% of grant dollars and all 14 grants within NY, with prior years similarly dominated by NY recipients.
Recipient Variety
The latest year funded 14 distinct independent organizations across health, arts, education and local emergency services, and multiple years show a comparable spread despite dollar concentration among the top recipients.
New Applicants
There is evidence of new recipients entering the portfolio (several new grantees in 2023 and 2024), but the foundation declares it only funds preselected applicants and no public submission route is visible, so outsider access appears limited though not impossible.
