Ideal Applicant
A small, locally based nonprofit or community organization in the Upper Perkiomen Valley/Boyertown area of Pennsylvania seeking modest general operating support or scholarship funding.
Good Fit
- • Located in the foundation’s stated service area (Upper Perkiomen Valley / Boyertown, PA).
- • Requests for general operating support or scholarships in the typical $2K–$10K range.
- • Established local presence or history of community service (schools, volunteer fire companies, ambulances, libraries, service clubs).
- • Comfort with a simple, letter-based request process and an October 31 deadline.
Geography
All observed grants in each year were to Pennsylvania organizations and the foundation explicitly restricts support to the Upper Perkiomen Valley and Boyertown areas.
Recipient Variety
The latest year shows 16 distinct recipients and the portfolio includes a range of independent local institutions (schools, fire companies, ambulance services, libraries, service clubs and scholarship beneficiaries).
New Applicants
A public application route exists (written letter to a named contact with an October 31 deadline), but recent history shows very low turnover (no new recipients in the latest year) so new entrants are possible but not commonly added to the stable local portfolio.
