Grant Considerations
We take many different aspects of applications into account when making grant issuing decisions, however these are some of the high-level questions we ask ourselves during the process:
- How does the organization serve their key audience goals?
- Is the organization fiscally responsible?
- Will a grant have a tangible, meaningful impact?
- Will we see direct results from this grant?
- Does the organization have other financial contributors?

In 2023, the foundation made 53 grants and in total distributed approximately $2.59 million in charitable gifts.
