At a glance
Key takeaways
- The filing states no geographic focus, so any region named in its grants is a record of past giving, not a limit on who may apply.
- Its typical grants run from $5,000 to $70,000, and half of its grants to organisations were $25,000 or less, so a modest request is the realistic size to ask for.
- Most of its grant dollars went to organisations it had funded in earlier years, so a first request is unlikely to be easy to win.
- Requests go in writing to the address in the filing, and the filing gives no deadlines.
