F Felix Foundation
At a glance
This funder does not accept unsolicited applications. The foundation chooses the organisations it funds itself.
Key takeaways
- The filing says the foundation accepts contributions only from preselected charitable organisations and does not accept unsolicited requests, so a cold application is unlikely to be considered.
- Its recorded grants went mainly to environmental and climate-related organisations, so that is the clearest fit, though agricultural research, peacebuilding and wilderness leadership also appear.
- Most of its grants fall in a typical range of $10,000 to $32,000, with a median of $20,000, so a request near the middle of that range would match its past giving.
- More than half of its grant dollars in the latest filing went to organisations it had funded before, so a small charity without an existing connection should expect the odds to be harder.
