SKL Family Foundation
At a glance
This funder does not accept unsolicited applications. The foundation chooses the organisations it funds itself.
Key takeaways
- The foundation does not accept unsolicited requests and makes its contributions to organisations it preselects, so a cold approach is unlikely to be considered, and the filing gives no route for requesting consideration.
- Its filing states no field of work and no geographic focus, so fit is hard to judge from the record alone, though its grants are recorded across several US states and the District of Columbia.
- Most of its grants are modest: about 8 in 10 of its 13 grants to organisations fall between $3,500 and $12,000, with a median of $10,000, although its largest grant was $20,000, so that band is typical rather than a limit.
- None of its most recent grant dollars went to organisations it had funded in earlier filings, so repeat support should not be assumed.
Overview
SKL Family Foundation is a US private foundation based in Nokomis, FL.
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 filings do not set out a particular field of work or a preferred type of organisation. Their grant records show support for a varied group of charitable organisations, including those working in disaster relief and humanitarian aid, food banking, clean water, reproductive health, gun safety, agriculture and services for children. Grants are described simply as furthering each recipient's mission. The recorded recipients are spread across several US states and the District of Columbia; the filings do not state a preferred grant area. Contributions are made to preselected charitable organisations, and unsolicited requests are not accepted. The filing provides no details of selection criteria, application materials or a way for organisations to request consideration.
Geographic Focus
No geographic focus is stated; the filings show grants mainly in California, District of Columbia, Minnesota, Maryland and Iowa.
