Ideal Applicant
Small to mid-sized faith-based or community service nonprofits (churches, local human services, and small education charities) with regional connections or prior referrals seeking modest general operating support.
Good Fit
- • Established relationship or referral to the foundation or its officers.
- • Faith-based mission or community service focus similar to past recipients.
- • Request size in the small-grant range (roughly $1–6K).
- • Operating presence in Alabama or nearby states, or ties to other grantees.
Geography
Grants are distributed across seven states rather than a single city or county, but giving is regionally concentrated with about 39% of dollars to the foundation's home state.
Recipient Variety
The latest year shows 16 distinct independent recipients including churches, education and human service organizations; most grantees appear independent despite some dollar concentration among the top recipients.
New Applicants
The foundation states it funds only preselected applicants and has no public website or contact route; while three new grantees appeared in the latest year, the portfolio is largely repeat recipients, so unsolicited applicants are unlikely to gain entry without referral.
