Ideal Applicant

A small or local nonprofit in California with programs in education, humanitarian services, faith-based work, or medical/children’s health that fits modest, one-time grant sizes and can be introduced through local relationships.

Good Fit

  • Located in California or serving communities there
  • Mission aligns with education, humanitarian aid, religious institutions, or medical/children’s health
  • Comfortable receiving relatively small awards (hundreds to a few thousand dollars)
  • Existing local relationships or introductions to the foundation’s leaders or repeat grantees
  • Track record of community-level programs rather than large national initiatives

Geography

Restrictive

Giving is heavily concentrated in one state: roughly 86% of dollars went to California in the latest year, with only two other states receiving small shares.

Recipient Variety

Moderate

The foundation funded ten distinct recipients in 2024 (and has funded 13–17 recipients in prior years), showing a moderate spread of independent grantees even though dollars are concentrated among the top five.

New Applicants

Restrictive

The foundation declares it funds only preselected applicants and no public application path or contact details were found; although four new recipients appeared in 2024, the stated preselection practice and recurring grantee pattern indicate entry for unfamiliar applicants is unlikely without an introduction.
