Ideal Applicant
Small-to-mid sized Michigan nonprofits working with veterans and their families, at-risk youth, or children with disabilities; organizations seeking general operating support in the $10k–$30k range.
Good Fit
- • Program work focused in Michigan (local or regional presence).
- • Direct service to veterans, youth development, or disability support for children.
- • Ability to receive unrestricted/general purpose operating support of roughly $10k–$30k.
- • Track record as a registered charity with clear outcomes and local community ties.
Geography
Giving is heavily concentrated in the foundation's home state, with about 97% of grant dollars staying in Michigan and only three states represented in the latest year.
Recipient Variety
The latest year shows 36 distinct recipients (36 grants), and over three years the foundation funded many independent local charities with a mix of repeat and new grantees, indicating a broad recipient set for the foundation's size.
New Applicants
There is a visible application process and about 10 new recipients appeared in the latest year, but filings also note grants may be limited to preselected applicants; direct evidence of open-entry practices is mixed, so new applicants are plausible but not guaranteed.
