Based on grants this organization reported to the IRS for tax years 2021–2023. This is what they filed, not a complete record of their giving, and recent years may be incomplete because filings lag.

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

Refugee resettlement and reception services through local affiliate agencies
Unaccompanied children placement and case management with county partners
Health screening and behavioral health services for new arrivals
Legal services and asylum representation (RAICES, Human Rights First, Ayuda)
Administrative and technical contractors handling agency payments
Employment, English instruction and integration programming

Typical grant

Median payment is about $150,000 but the distribution is extremely lopsided: the middle half spans $35,000 to $1.1 million while the top payment alone was $87 million. The largest checks go to national affiliate networks (International Institutes, YMCA International Services), county governments, and administrative contractors like Unified Administrators and ICF. Payments recur year over year to the same affiliate network, so this reads as ongoing contract funding rather than one-time grants.

Their words

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

“AGENCY PAYMENTS”
“REFUGEES”
“INTERNATIONAL INSTITUTE”
“IMMIGRANT AND REFUGEE”
“COMMUNITY SERVICES”

Positioning adjacent work

Read this as pass-through federal resettlement money. Approach as a subrecipient or affiliate partner, not a grant applicant.
Connect to their health and behavioral health line: torture survivor care, screening clinics, mental health for arrivals.
Texas, California and Missouri carry the most payments. Frame work as serving arrivals in those receiving communities.
Ask in the $150,000 to $500,000 range for a defined service component tied to an existing affiliate.

Worth knowing: This is USCRI, a resettlement agency moving federal reception and placement dollars, not a discretionary private foundation. A handful of affiliates and contractors take the bulk of the money, and the 2023 concentration in Unified Administrators plus county governments in Texas reflects unaccompanied children and border reception work rather than open grantmaking.
