Ideal Applicant
Small mission societies, individual missionaries, or faith-based groups focused on outreach to North Korea or refugee assistance with prior connections to the foundation’s network.
Good Fit
- • Work explicitly tied to missionary outreach or North Korean refugee assistance.
- • Existing relationship or introduction to the foundation’s leadership or known grantees (e.g., mission partners in Seoul).
- • Capacity to receive modest awards (typical grants are small to mid-sized rather than multi-hundred-thousand dollars).
- • Geographic presence or activity in Seoul, South Korea, California, or the UK.
Geography
Observed grants in 2024 went to recipients in four different states/countries (including Seoul, the United Kingdom, and California), and prior years also show significant out-of-state and international giving.
Recipient Variety
The foundation funded about five to six distinct recipients per year across three years, mixing mission societies, for-profit named entities, and individuals; this shows a modestly diverse recipient set for a micro foundation even though a few recipients receive larger shares.
New Applicants
The foundation explicitly declares it funds only preselected recipients and its public materials reflect an invitation-driven model; while new grantees do appear from year to year, no open application route is provided and direct evidence that unsolicited applicants can enter the portfolio is lacking.
