Unsolicited applications are not accepted

This funder does not accept unsolicited applications. The foundation chooses the organisations it funds itself.

Key takeaways

  • The foundation makes contributions only to organisations it has preselected and does not accept unsolicited requests, so a small charity without an existing invitation should not send it an application.
  • Where a route already exists, a request around $100,000 matches its median grant, and half of its 37 grants to organisations were $100,000 or less, although about 8 in 10 of its grants fall between $60,000 and $1,000,000.
  • Repeat giving is substantial, with 34% of its latest-filing grant dollars to organisations going to organisations it had also funded in earlier filings.
  • No geographic focus is stated; the filings show grants mainly in Georgia, Maryland, Iowa and Colorado, but that describes past giving, not who may apply.
