Ideal Applicant
Established nonprofits in health, community services, education, or youth development with a clear operating track record and connections or nominations from existing grantees or intermediaries; typical award sizes historically range from a few thousand to mid-five-figure grants, with occasional larger awards.
Good Fit
- • Provides health, community center, education, youth development, or similar services.
- • Has an existing relationship, board-level connection, or referral from a prior grantee or intermediary.
- • Can responsibly manage unrestricted operating support in the observed award size range.
- • Is located or active in states the foundation has funded (several northeastern and sun‑belt states are represented).
Geography
Observed giving in the latest year reached recipients across nine states, so the footprint is multi-state rather than narrowly local, although one state received a meaningful single-state share (roughly 31%).
Recipient Variety
The latest year shows 38 distinct recipients with a mix of returning grantees (25) and new entrants (13), indicating a fairly broad and diverse recipient set despite some dollar concentration at the top.
New Applicants
Direct evidence shows the foundation added new grantees in recent years, but the publicly stated process is preselection-only and no clear public contact or submission route is visible; this suggests unfamiliar applicants can be funded but typically via nomination, referral, or other indirect routes.
