Geography
The latest year shows grants to recipients in 13 states, with a clear multi-state footprint and a strong concentration of dollars in Michigan (about 38% of 2023 giving).
Recipient Variety
The foundation funded 29 distinct recipients in 2023 (and 20 in 2022), spanning faith-based organizations, colleges, health and international relief groups; although the top five received a large share of dollars, the number of independent grantees is substantial.
New Applicants
Filings state grants are made only to preselected applicants (no public application), which limits self-initiated entry, but the observed giving includes a meaningful number of new grantees in 2023, indicating new entrants can be added—likely by invitation or referral rather than open application.
