Ideal Applicant
Small to mid-sized nonprofits or charitable projects with programmatic work in education, healthcare/hospitals, faith-based services, or environmental protection — especially organizations with a Florida or regional presence seeking modest grants.
Good Fit
- • Programs focused on education, hospitals/healthcare, religious services, or conservation.
- • A demonstrated impact in Florida or nearby states (regional footprint).
- • Requests for modest, one-time grants in the low thousands to mid-twenties of thousands.
- • Ability to submit a concise two-page written summary and to supply local or trustee referrals.
- • A mix of new or repeat relationship — evidence of prior small grants is helpful but not required.
Geography
Grants span five states in the latest year, but a single state received the majority of dollars (about 63%), indicating a regional footprint with a clear local concentration.
Recipient Variety
The foundation made many distinct awards each year (13, 14, 17) and funded numerous independent organizations in the latest year, showing a broad recipient set for its size despite some dollar concentration among top recipients.
New Applicants
Behavioral evidence shows new grantees were funded (six new recipients in the latest year and seven new in the prior year), and a public application route exists (a two-page written summary with a named contact and rolling submissions), so unfamiliar applicants have a plausible path into the portfolio.
