Geography
Grants reached recipients in seven states in the latest year, but a strong majority of dollars (about 61%) went to Delaware recipients, indicating multi-state reach with a clear in-state concentration.
Recipient Variety
The latest year shows 19 distinct recipients with a mix of scholarship awards and community/children/disability grants, indicating a broad recipient set for a micro private foundation.
New Applicants
