Ideal Applicant
A small-to-mid nonprofit with a demonstrated Massachusetts or Northeast presence that needs modest general operating support and has or can develop a relationship with the foundation or its current grantee network.
Good Fit
- • Established operating programs or local services in Massachusetts or the Northeast.
- • A need for modest unrestricted or general operating support in the $1K–$10K range.
- • Existing relationships or introductions from current or past grantees or local civic networks.
- • A track record of steady operations and clear alignment with civil rights, human services, environmental, or health causes.
Geography
Giving is multi-state (recipients in about 13 states) but is strongly concentrated in Massachusetts, which received roughly half of the dollars in the latest year.
Recipient Variety
The foundation funded a large number of distinct independent recipients in the latest year (68 grants to 68 recipients) and repeats most of those grantees across years, indicating a broad portfolio rather than a single beneficiary.
New Applicants
The foundation publicly states it does not accept unsolicited inquiries and the observed pattern shows very few new grantees each year (about 6 in 2024), so unfamiliar applicants are unlikely to gain entry without a preexisting selection or introduction.
