Ideal Applicant
A small-to-midsize nonprofit whose work aligns with the foundation's faith-informed community, arts, youth, or social-justice interests and that seeks modest, unrestricted grants or project support in the $2K–$25K range.
Good Fit
- • Mission or programs that align with a faith-based or post-evangelical worldview combined with community service, arts, youth, or equity work.
- • Need for general operating or program support at modest award levels (typical grants under $25K).
- • Located in states where the foundation has recently given (examples include GA, MA, VA, NC, NY, PR, TX).
- • Existing relationship, prior introduction, or referral into the foundation's network (repeat grantees are common).
Geography
Recent giving spans seven states and Puerto Rico across multiple regions rather than a single metro, so the observed footprint is multi-state in scope.
Recipient Variety
The foundation funded about a dozen distinct recipients in the latest year and shows a mix of returning and new grantees, indicating a moderate breadth of independent recipients for a small private foundation.
New Applicants
Direct evidence of frequent open solicitations is absent because the foundation declares a preselected posture, but the website includes grant criteria and an enquiry form and several new grantees appear in recent years, so unsolicited applicants may occasionally gain entry but are unlikely to be guaranteed consideration.
