Geography
Historically the foundation funded recipients across many states (prior years show funding in 20–29 states), and the latest year touched 10 states; the footprint is national in scope even though 2023 dollars were heavily concentrated in one state.
Recipient Variety
Across 2020–2022 the foundation supported hundreds of distinct recipients each year, showing broad institutional variety; the latest year was unusually small (13 recipients) but included both returning and new grantees, so overall variety remains high.
New Applicants
Direct application routes are limited because public materials state grants are by preselection, but historical behavior includes many new recipients in earlier years and four newly observed grantees in 2023, so openings for unfamiliar applicants exist but are not clearly routinized.
