Ideal Applicant
A small to mid-sized registered charity seeking modest, one-time or programmatic support (typically under $5k) with visible local or regional impact, especially organizations in Washington or California but also statewide/national groups.
Good Fit
- • Asks for modest amounts (typically several hundred to a few thousand dollars).
- • Clear community service, health, food security, youth, or faith-based programming.
- • Demonstrable nonprofit status and concise case for general operating or program support.
- • Local or regional presence in states the foundation has funded (notably WA and CA).
- • Connections or introductions from local networks or previous grantees.
Geography
The latest year shows grants to recipients in 16 different states, with only a modest in-state share; funding is multi-state with a concentration (about 32%) in one state.
Recipient Variety
In the most recent year the foundation funded 61 distinct recipients, of which 51 were new that year and only 10 repeated across years, indicating a broad and diverse recipient set of mostly small grants.
New Applicants
Behaviorally the funder supported many new grantees (51 new in the latest year), but filings and the profile state grants are generally to preselected recipients and no public application portal exists, so unsolicited applicants may have limited direct access.
