Ideal Applicant
Small-to-midsize charities with programs in health/medical research, hospice, food security, veterans or local community services, particularly those serving Virginia/Eastern Shore communities.
Good Fit
- • Work primarily serves Virginia or the Eastern Shore region.
- • Programs in medical care, Alzheimer's support, hospice, food banks, or veterans services.
- • Project budgets consistent with past awards (frequently in the $5K–$50K range).
- • Willingness to submit a written request and to use a phone or mailed contact route.
- • Local credibility or existing relationship with foundation leadership or intermediaries.
Geography
Grants appear multi-state (recipients in seven states) but are regionally concentrated: about 62% of dollars in the latest year were directed to Virginia.
Recipient Variety
The latest year shows 14 distinct recipients across healthcare, food security, veterans and local services, and the three-year history includes both recurring and new grantees, indicating a broadly distributed recipient set for this foundation's size.
New Applicants
Direct behavioral evidence shows new recipients each year (three in 2023, six in 2024), and the filing lists a phone/address request route, so unfamiliar organizations have plausibly entered the portfolio despite no public website.
