The Goldberg Family Foundation

• The Goldberg Family Foundation, based in Boston, paid out $1,132,278 in its latest filing.
• Its recorded grants go mainly to a Jewish philanthropic organisation, with support for a medical centre, a congregation, a school, an environmental research centre and a conservation organisation, and they are concentrated in Massachusetts.
• The filings show grants mainly in the United States and Massachusetts, but no geographic focus is stated, so the filing does not rule out an organisation elsewhere in the US.
• Half of its 16 grants were $72,000 or less, so a request near that figure fits its usual pattern, although its typical band runs from $20,000 to $955,000 and its largest grant was about $1,100,000, to Combined Jewish Philanthropies, which regrants to other organisations.
• The filing gives no deadlines, so timing is not set out, and applicants should include a statement of grant purpose, an operating budget, the most recent audited financial statements, a board list, key-staff resumes and an IRS exemption letter; because 96% of its grant dollars went to organisations it had funded in earlier filings, newcomers should expect a harder route than organisations with existing ties.
