Ideal Applicant
Small-to-mid sized charities (especially Florida-based) working in homelessness, workforce training, education, cultural heritage, or Jewish community causes and able to manage modest grants.
Good Fit
- • A strong program presence in Florida or a Miami-area connection.
- • Work in homelessness, job training, education, or community cultural programming.
- • Capacity to steward modest awards (typical grants range from a few thousand up to low five-figures).
- • An existing relationship, referral, or introduction to a board member or director.
- • Track record of local impact and clear, project-focused budgets.
Geography
Giving is strongly concentrated in Florida (about 80% of dollars) but small awards also reached organizations in six other states, so the footprint is primarily state-focused with occasional out-of-state grants.
Recipient Variety
The latest year shows 18 distinct recipients across multiple mission areas (education, homelessness, workforce, cultural and Jewish organizations), indicating a broad recipient set even though dollars are concentrated among a few awards.
New Applicants
Filings and the foundation's stated policy indicate funding of only preselected applicants and no public solicitation; although nine new recipients appeared in 2023, there is no evidence that unsolicited applications are accepted, so new entrants are likely added by invitation or referral.
