Geographic Focus
Primarily serves the Seattle area of Washington state. With only a few exceptions, grantmaking is concentrated in the Seattle region. The foundation also makes some grants in Kansas and Colorado (these three states account for 92% of all grants).
Funding Priorities
- Education (largest funding area): Emphasizes educational equity for BIPOC and underserved students in Seattle; supports K-12 organizations including Alliance for Education, Villa Academy, Seattle Public Schools, Sport in Schools, and Washington Alliance for Better Schools
- Human Services: Prioritizes foster youth and vulnerable populations in and around Seattle
- Health: Smaller giving area in recent years
- Humanitarian Aid: Limited support
- Wildlife Conservation: Limited support
The foundation co-founded the Seattle chapter of I Have a Dream and helped launch the GOLD Scholars Program, which focuses on life-long success and higher education opportunities for young African American men.
What They Don't Fund
- Unsolicited proposals (does not accept applications from organizations not already in their funding portfolio)
Application Method
No public application process. The foundation only makes contributions to preselected charitable organizations and does not accept unsolicited requests for funds. Tudor tends to support the same organizations year after year. A connection to the family or a past grantee may help to open the door.
