Haven Trust
At a glance
Key takeaways
- Haven Trust, a private foundation based in Boston, paid $0 in its latest filing, and no grant range is stated, so a grant writer should not assume any particular size of award.
- The only recorded organisational grant is general support for a community centre in North Haven, Maine, and the filing shows grants mainly in Maine, though no geographic focus is stated, so a Maine organisation has the closest match in the record but no stated limit excludes others.
- The filing gives no particular field of work and no deadline, and says the foundation accepts applications, so the route it names is to address a request to the contact given in the filing.
- With only one recorded instance of general support, a modest and clearly explained request is the safest starting point, and the filing says nothing about how competitive the foundation is or how far decisions depend on prior contact.
Overview
Haven Trust is a US private foundation based in Boston, MA.
What they fund
Profile based on the foundation's IRS Form 990-PF filings (TY2024, TY2023, TY2022) only: no website or other web source for the foundation was found. Every statement is checked against the filings. Sources read on 7 October 2026.
Priority Areas
The available filings do not state a particular field of work, beneficiary group, geographic preference or organisational eligibility criterion. The recorded organisational giving is limited to general support for a community centre in North Haven, Maine. That record shows that the trust has made a grant to a community organisation, but it does not establish a broader programme or a recurring preference for that kind of recipient. The application information gives no required form or supporting material, no submission deadline and no award restrictions. Accordingly, the evidence supports describing one instance of general support, rather than presenting a specific charitable theme or application condition as a standing priority.
Geographic Focus
No geographic focus is stated; the filings show grants mainly in Maine.
