Ideal Applicant
A community-led nonprofit working with people displaced by conflict, persecution, disaster, or climate change that can manage program grants and demonstrate alignment with humanitarian or asylum-seeker support.
Good Fit
- • Direct service, advocacy, or capacity-building work for refugees, asylum seekers, or displaced communities.
- • Evidence of community-led programming and measurable program outcomes.
- • Organizational capacity to receive and manage program grants (from modest to large amounts).
- • Geographic relevance to the funder’s observed portfolio (U.S. presence especially visible).
Geography
In the latest year grants were recorded in seven U.S. states, showing a multistate footprint, but dollar volume was heavily concentrated in New York (about 88% of dollars).
Recipient Variety
Eleven distinct recipients were funded in the latest year with eight new entrants, indicating a moderate breadth of independent grantees, even though funding dollars are highly concentrated in a single large recipient.
New Applicants
The funder supported eight new recipients in the latest year, which indicates new entrants can be funded, but no public application process was found on the website, so formal openness cannot be confirmed from public materials.
