Hasson Lifestreams 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 is by invitation only and does not accept unsolicited requests, so a cold approach is unlikely to be considered; the realistic route is an introduction from someone already connected to it.
- Its recorded grants have mostly gone to ministries, churches, arts organisations and other charitable bodies, so the fit is clearest for groups whose work resembles those recipients.
- Most grants are modest: about 8 in 10 fall between $7,500 and $145,000, and half of its 49 grants to organisations were $25,000 or less, so a request near $25,000 sits at the typical end, although the largest grant was $200,000.
- Repeat giving is high, with 82% of grant dollars to organisations going to groups it had also funded in earlier filings.
- The filing does not state a geographic focus; grants are mainly in California and Texas, but that is a pattern, not a rule about who may apply.
Overview
Hasson Lifestreams Foundation is a US private foundation based in San Diego, CA.
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 filed record describes its grants in broad terms: most are recorded as general donations, with the remainder described as charitable support. The recipients include numerous ministries and churches, as well as arts organisations, a theatre organisation, an orphanage and other charitable bodies. It does not name a narrower grantmaking field. Recipient locations are concentrated in California, with smaller amounts reaching Texas, the District of Columbia and Utah. Its giving is selective rather than open to unsolicited approaches: the return marks contributions as going only to preselected charitable organisations and says unsolicited requests are not accepted.
Geographic Focus
No geographic focus is stated; the filings show grants mainly in California and Texas.
