Ideal Applicant
A small or local nonprofit working in education, health, or community/human services—especially organizations in Tennessee or similar communities—that seeks modest one-time or annual program/general support.
Good Fit
- • Mission aligns with education, health, community building, or veterans/service support.
- • Organization is familiar to the foundation or has an existing local connection to Nashville/Tennessee networks.
- • Request size fits the foundation’s typical $1k–$6k grant range.
- • Capacity to demonstrate clear, concrete use of a small unrestricted or program grant.
Geography
Observed grants in the latest year went to organizations in eight different states and the foundation sends roughly two-thirds of dollars out of state, showing a multi-state footprint even though Tennessee receives the largest single-state share.
Recipient Variety
In the latest year the foundation made about 15 grants to 15 distinct organizations and maintained a similar count across three years, indicating a broad set of independent grantees rather than a tiny closed recipient circle.
New Applicants
Direct evidence of recipient turnover is limited but observable: roughly 20% of 2024 recipients were new while 80% were returning, and the foundation's materials state grants are to preselected organizations, so occasional new entrants are possible but unsolicited applications are unlikely to be the primary route.
