Ideal Applicant
Small or local nonprofits seeking modest general support whose work aligns with the foundation’s stated restrictions around human dignity, equality, justice, and faith‑based or social service activities.
Good Fit
- • Requesting modest general operating support or small program grants.
- • Clear alignment with the foundation’s mission language about human dignity, equality, and justice.
- • Local presence or demonstrated service in West Virginia or nearby states, though out‑of‑state grants are also awarded.
- • Willingness to follow a letter/phone-based application request process and accept small award sizes.
Geography
Giving in the latest year reached nine states and the majority of dollars went outside the foundation state; grants are multi‑state rather than strictly local despite a WV concentration.
Recipient Variety
The latest year shows 17 distinct recipients across varied mission types (religious groups, social service agencies, international charities), with only two repeat recipients from the prior year, indicating a broad recipient set.
New Applicants
Fifteen new recipients were funded in the latest year and application materials are available on request via a named trustee/third‑party contact, so unfamiliar applicants appear plausibly able to enter the portfolio; the conclusion is based on the two years of observed history.
