Funding pattern

What this funder pays for, at what size, and how to position adjacent work. Read from their filings, with every number checked against the record.

Where the money goes

Subawards to universities and academic medical centers on Yale-led research
Biomedical and clinical research partners: children's hospitals, cancer centers, medical schools
New Haven community support: Promise scholarships, hospital DAF distributions
Behavioral health and addiction service organizations in greater New Haven
Multi-site clinical trial and consortium sites across CT, NY, CA, MA, TX

Typical grant

Median payment is about $117,000, with the middle half between $31,000 and $392,000. The seven-figure checks go to major research partners on Yale-led multi-site studies (UC San Diego at $8.6M, Boston Children's at $3.6M) and to New Haven institutions like Yale New Haven Hospital and New Haven Promise; the small ones are single-site subaward slices. With 1,336 payments to 552 recipients over four years, repeat flow is the norm as multi-year projects draw down.

Their words

Phrases from their own grant descriptions, worth speaking back to them.

“SUBAWARD - SPONSORED RESEARCH”
“CHARITABLE CONTRIBUTION AND COMMUNITY SUPPORT”
“DAF DISTRIBUTION”

Positioning adjacent work

Treat this as subaward flow, not philanthropy: find the Yale PI whose project needs your site or expertise.
Match the observed range and budget a site subaward of $300K to $1M, not a lump gift.
Emphasize clinical trial site capacity, patient recruitment, or a specialized core the Yale team lacks.
Community-benefit asks only work with a New Haven footprint, following Promise and Continuum of Care.

Worth knowing: Nearly all of this money is pass-through research funding, largely federal, flowing from Yale-led awards to collaborating institutions, so the decision maker is a principal investigator and a sponsored-projects office, not a grants committee. The purely charitable share is small and heavily concentrated in New Haven, with Yale New Haven Hospital and New Haven Promise taking most of it.
