This funder does not accept unsolicited applications. The foundation chooses the organisations it funds itself.
Key takeaways
- The Litwin Foundation, based in New Hyde Park, NY, says it makes contributions only to preselected charitable organisations and does not accept unsolicited requests, so a small nonprofit should not send it a cold application.
- The filing does not explain how recipients are selected or what an organisation must provide, and the only route it describes is being preselected.
- Its latest filing shows $4,365,661 paid out, but no grant range is stated, so that total should not be used to size a request.
- The filing gives no geographic focus, charitable field or timetable, so whether your work fits cannot be judged from what is available.
Overview
The Litwin Foundation is a US private foundation based in New Hyde Park, NY.
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
Across the filings, the grant rows identify recipients only as public charities and do not name the organisations. The foundation indicates that it makes contributions only to preselected charitable organisations and does not accept unsolicited requests. No specific charitable field, geographic area, eligibility conditions beyond preselection, or public application route is stated in the available material. The filings do not explain how recipients are selected, what information an organisation must provide, or whether any recurring timetable applies. They therefore establish grantmaking to charitable organisations, but provide no further description of the kinds of work supported.
How to apply
The filing indicates that the foundation makes contributions only to preselected charitable organisations and does not accept unsolicited requests.
