AMK Foundation
At a glance
Key takeaways
- AMK Foundation's funding is strongly focused on work that raises awareness of the conditions of needy Copts in Egypt and on education, nutrition and medical help, alongside support for Christian organisations and churches and some general operating grants, including to a children's hospital foundation; a charity whose work sits well outside these themes is unlikely to be a good fit.
- The foundation paid out $7,920,000 in grants, with awards typically ranging from $10,000 to $4,500,000 and a median grant of $50,000, so a modest request towards the lower end of that range is the most realistic starting point for a small nonprofit.
- No geographic focus is stated, though its grants have mainly gone to New Jersey, so treat this as useful context rather than a rule about who may apply.
- Giving looks relationship-led rather than a simple open competition: all of its grant dollars to organisations in its most recent filing went to organisations it had already funded in the two previous filings, so a first-time applicant should expect it to take time and persistence to be noticed.
- There are no deadlines in the IRS filing and it accepts applications; it also notes that any person may write to the foundation to be considered for scholarship support.

Priority Areas
Across its recorded grants, the foundation has chiefly supported work to raise awareness in the United States about the conditions of needy Copts in Egypt, and to provide education, nutrition and medical help. These are the dominant stated purposes in its grant record. Other grants support organisations described as empowering children of Egypt to grow into leading, responsible members of Egyptian society, and churches and Christian organisations whose work engages believers in their faith or reflects the light of Christ and the Orthodox Christian faith. The grant record also includes general operating support for a range of organisations, including a children's hospital foundation. The record identifies these grant purposes and recipients, but does not state eligibility criteria or a broader grantmaking policy.
