Jordan Mary R & Ettie A Charitable

• The filing gives Missouri as the foundation's geographic focus, and its recorded grants span education, health, arts, churches, public media and social services, mostly as general operating support, so a Missouri organisation with a general funding need is the closest fit.
• Most grants are modest: half of its 252 grants to organisations across the three filings on record were $5,000 or less, and about 8 in 10 fall between $2,500 and $25,000, which makes a request in that band typical, though the largest grant was $250,000.
• Repeat giving is heavy, with 94% of the grant dollars to organisations in the latest filing going to groups it had also funded in earlier filings, so a first approach may benefit from an existing connection to the foundation.
• The foundation accepts applications, and the filing gives no deadlines, so a letter of inquiry can be sent whenever the work is ready.
