Ideal Applicant
A faith-based or religiously affiliated nonprofit (often church or religious-education related), ideally known to or recommended to the foundation and with ties to Alabama or the foundation’s network.
Good Fit
- • Religious or religious-educational mission aligned with past grantees.
- • A prior relationship, nomination, or referral to the foundation.
- • Local presence or projects in Alabama or demonstrated connection to the foundation’s existing recipients.
- • A well-scoped, project-specific request consistent with past grant sizes.
Geography
Observed grants in the latest year reached six different states, showing a multi-state footprint, although the majority of dollars in 2023 flowed to Alabama (about three quarters of the total).
Recipient Variety
In each observed year the foundation funded roughly 4–6 distinct organizations and the latest year included six separate recipients, indicating a moderate spread of independent grantees despite dollar concentration to one large recipient.
New Applicants
Direct evidence shows four new recipients entered the portfolio in 2023, but the foundation also declares it funds only preselected recipients and has no public website, so unfamiliar applicants are plausibly able to receive support but typically via referral, nomination, or invitation rather than an open application.
