What They Don't Fund
Information not publicly available. Given the focused nature of their giving (education and Catholic agencies), it appears they fund within specific institutional relationships rather than accepting unsolicited proposals.
Application Method
No public application process. This is a private family foundation that appears to make grants primarily to pre-selected institutions with which the Carell family had established relationships. The foundation was established in 1983 by Monroe J. Carell Jr. (1932-2008), founder of Central Parking Corp., and his wife Ann Scott Carell (1935-2012).
The foundation makes a limited number of grants annually (2 awards in 2022, 3 in 2021, 4 in 2020) to established institutional partners.
