Ideal Applicant
An Indiana-based nonprofit with established local ties or a referral from trustees/prior grantees, especially in education, community service, veterans support, or large local institutions able to absorb one-time large gifts.
Good Fit
- • Organizational presence and programs located in Indiana.
- • A documented relationship or introduction from a trustee, officer, or a prior grantee.
- • Capacity to receive and steward a large single gift or capital contribution.
- • Alignment with education, community service, veterans, or local cultural/sports causes seen in past grants.
- • Evidence of local credibility (partnerships, longstanding community service, institutional standing).
Geography
Giving is heavily concentrated in Indiana: in 2024 about 95% of dollars stayed in-state even though a few out-of-state recipients appear; the footprint is therefore locally focused.
Recipient Variety
The latest year shows seven distinct recipients with five repeat grantees across three years, plus a mix of small community organizations and occasional very large institutional grants, indicating a moderate variety for this foundation's scale.
New Applicants
Filings and the declared default application indicate grants are made only to preselected organizations; although two new recipients appeared in the latest year, the majority of funding goes to returning grantees and no public application or contact route is provided, so unfamiliar applicants are unlikely to gain access without a direct introduction.
