Key takeaways

  • The foundation gives to educational and charitable purposes and, as its filing puts it, only to organisations classed under section 501(c)(3), so a group outside that classification should not apply.
  • Its recorded giving centres on education, youth mentoring and recreation, arts and culture, social and family services, and community work, so a programme in one of these areas is the best fit.
  • Typical grants fall between $10,000 and $85,000, which covers about 8 in 10 of its 99 grants, and the median is $30,000, so a request near that level is realistic; the largest grant was $150,000, so that band is not a ceiling.
  • No geographic focus is stated, although most grants in the filings went to West Virginia, so confirm fit with the foundation rather than assuming a rule.
  • The filing gives no deadlines and no prescribed application form, and 99% of its grant dollars in its latest filing went to organisations it had also funded in the two earlier filings, so it is worth building a relationship and asking it about timing before you apply.

Priority Areas

The foundation’s filing limits awards to educational or charitable purposes and to organisations classified under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. Its recorded giving has supported youth mentoring and recreation groups, arts and cultural organisations, educational institutions, social-service and family-support providers, churches and wider community organisations in West Virginia. Some grants are recorded for educational opportunities and scholarships, while most are described broadly as charitable activities. The filings do not identify a narrower thematic focus or set out a more detailed account of the foundation’s approach beyond this broad educational and charitable remit.
