Ideal Applicant
A health-care anchored nonprofit or clinic that integrates nonpartisan voter registration and civic-engagement activities into clinical services.
Good Fit
- • Runs or can implement voter registration or civic-engagement programs in health-care settings (hospitals, community health centers, clinics).
- • Operates at the local or state level and serves populations similar to previously funded grantees (community health centers, reproductive health clinics, LGBTQ centers).
- • Capacity to use mid-range grants (roughly $5K–$60K) for program implementation or staff support.
- • Can demonstrate nonpartisan, clinic-integrated approaches and measurable civic engagement outcomes.
Geography
Observed giving in the latest year covered 21 states with about 96% of dollars going outside the foundation's home state, indicating a multi-state/national footprint.
Recipient Variety
The latest year shows 48 distinct recipients across a range of clinics and community organizations (health centers, reproductive health and LGBTQ organizations); top-five recipients account for 34% but many independent grantees were funded, so variety is high for the funder's size.
New Applicants
Direct behavioral evidence from the latest year shows all 48 grantees were new that year and there were no repeat recipients across years, and public contact routes exist; because multi-year granthistory is limited, this conclusion is based primarily on the strong single-year turnover and visible contact options.
