Ideal Applicant
A Washington-based school district or local nonprofit running marine education or school-visit programs seeking modest operational support (for example, bus transportation reimbursement or program-specific subsidies).
Good Fit
- • Organization is located in Washington state or serves Washington schools.
- • Request is for program-level support tied to aquarium visits, conservation education, or student access.
- • Requested amounts are modest (roughly $5K–$10K) and clearly budgeted for a discrete expense.
- • Ability to document direct service to local students or community audiences.
Geography
Observed giving in the latest year was entirely within Washington state; all recorded grants in 2024 went to in-state recipients.
Recipient Variety
The latest year shows three distinct independent recipients (three modest grants to different school districts), which indicates some diversity of recipients for a small local program, though the absolute number of grantees is small.
New Applicants
Direct evidence of multi-year recipient turnover is limited because meaningful grants appear only in the most recent year, but the 2024 grantees were new and the organization lists a philanthropy email and mailing address; however, no formal application process is posted, so openness to unfamiliar applicants is plausible but not clearly institutionalized.
