Davenport-Hatch Foundation
At a glance
Key takeaways
- The filing describes the foundation's purpose as making gifts and grants to charitable organisations in and around the Rochester, New York area, and its geographic focus is given as a priority on the Rochester, N.Y., area, so a small nonprofit working in that region fits its stated remit.
- The filing reports $2,405,122 paid in grants but gives no grant range, so set a modest request sized to your project rather than to that total.
- The filing gives no deadlines and says it accepts applications, and the form and information required are marked open, so it sets no date you must meet.
- The filing says nothing about how competitive the foundation is or whether introductions help, so treat both as unknown.
- Organisations working outside the Rochester area should weigh that stated priority before applying, as the filing states no other exclusion.
Overview
Davenport-Hatch Foundation is a US private foundation based in Rochester, NY.
What they fund
Profile derived from the foundation's IRS Form 990-PF filings (TY2024, TY2023, TY2022) and web pages about the foundation (esm.rochester.edu), with every statement checked against those sources. Sources read on 7 October 2026.
Priority Areas
The foundation describes its purpose as making gifts and grants to aid and support charitable organisations in and around the Rochester, New York, area. This is a broad charitable remit: it names charitable organisations as recipients and the Rochester area as its reach, but does not identify a narrower subject field or special type of organisation. The filings' grant rows refer to an attached schedule and detail without naming recipients or purposes. The material therefore gives no further basis for describing a preferred cause, applicant class, or project type.
Geographic Focus
Priority: Rochester, N.Y., area. (as reported in other published sources)
