Ideal Applicant
Small to mid-sized nonprofits, especially Illinois-based organizations, with programs in health care, disaster relief, food security, youth services, or academic/community support seeking grants in the low- to mid-five-figure range.
Good Fit
- • Organization operates in Illinois or can demonstrate clear Illinois impact.
- • Project aligns with past purposes: healthcare for the poor, disaster relief, food provision, youth respite, or academic/community assistance.
- • Request size in the range of roughly $1,000 to $20,000.
- • Ability to submit materials by mail and to follow up by phone with a named contact.
Geography
Giving is regionally concentrated: about 70% of 2024 dollars stayed in Illinois while smaller shares went to DC and NC, so the footprint is largely state-focused with some out-of-state awards.
Recipient Variety
The latest year shows nine distinct grantees and multiple independent organizations; three grantees repeated across the two observed years, indicating a moderately diverse recipient set rather than a tiny closed circle.
New Applicants
Behavioral evidence shows six new recipients in the latest year and the filings include application guidance plus a named contact, phone, mailing address, and a rolling submission policy, so unfamiliar applicants appear plausibly able to enter the portfolio.
