Geography
Grants in the latest year reached recipients in six states, with the foundation based in Idaho but awarding funds across ID, UT, CA, TX, NV and DE, indicating a multi‑state footprint.
Recipient Variety
The foundation funded 33 distinct recipients in the latest year (similar counts in prior years), with most awards going to individuals for scholarships and a mix of small youth development recipients, showing a broad recipient set for its size.
New Applicants
Direct evidence of access includes 23 new recipients in the latest year (about 70% of recipients) and an explicit application‑on‑request process with a prescribed form and deadline, so unfamiliar applicants appear likely to enter the portfolio.
