Ideal Applicant

A small-to-medium direct-service or human/social services nonprofit with a track record of local impact and capacity to manage smaller, unrestricted operational grants; strong alignment with the foundation’s typical human-services focus and an existing relationship or credible introduction.

Good Fit

  • Direct-service human services, social services, youth programs, housing or community organizations.
  • Experience managing modest annual grants (many grants are in the $0–$10K range; median grant ~ $2.5K in 2024).
  • Local or regional presence in states the foundation commonly funds (notably Indiana, Missouri, Maryland and DC).
  • Existing relationship, board or partner introduction, or prior grant history with the funder’s network.

Geography

Broad

Observed giving in the latest year reached 24 states and the foundation sends about 83% of dollars out of its home state, indicating a multi-state/national footprint despite a concentration of about 28% in one state.

Recipient Variety

Broad

The latest year shows 154 distinct recipients (154 grants) with modest top-share concentration (top one ~13%, top five ~32%) and a mix of many small grants and occasional larger awards, indicating a broad and diverse recipient set.

New Applicants

Restrictive

Direct filings and the default application note that the foundation funds only preselected applicants; while 31 new recipients appeared in 2024, the majority of grantees (about 80%) are returning, so unsolicited new entrants are unlikely to gain access absent an introduction or selection.
