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
- NYC nonprofits serving immigrants, youth, and low-income families
- Climate and environment, from Allied Climate Partners to local land groups
- Arts and culture in New York City, led by NYFA regrants
- Universities receiving donor-advised general and program support
- Health care access, cancer care, and clinical research in NYC
- Disability services and special education on Long Island and in NYC
Typical grant
Median grant is $22,000 and half of all grants fall between $10,000 and $55,000, so the ordinary check is small and program-specific. The seven-figure and eight-figure awards go almost entirely to large institutions on donor advice, including Yale at $12 million and Johns Hopkins at $6 million, and to intermediaries like Allied Climate Partners and New York Foundation for the Arts that regrant the money. With 5,101 grants across 2,841 recipients in two years, most organizations appear more than once, so renewal is common at the small and mid range.
Their words
Phrases from their own grant descriptions, worth speaking back to them.
- “FOR PROGRAM SUPPORT”
- “FOR GENERAL SUPPORT”
- “FOR RESEARCH”
- “FOR A FELLOWSHIP PROGRAM”
- “FOR A SCHOLARSHIP AWARD”
Positioning adjacent work
- Ask in the $25,000 to $75,000 range for a defined project, not a general operating gift.
- Tie the work to a named New York City population: immigrants, students, cancer patients, or transit riders.
- Route research through an established NYC institution; grants marked FOR RESEARCH go to MSK, Columbia, Cornell, NY Presbyterian.
- Climate work fares better framed for regional impact or through intermediaries like Multiplier and Tides.
Worth knowing: Roughly 59 percent of recipients are in New York State and the discretionary money is overwhelmingly a five-borough and Long Island story; out-of-state awards to Yale, Johns Hopkins, the Bhutan Foundation, and the Cleveland Zoo reflect individual donor advisors rather than an institutional priority. If your work sits outside New York, the realistic path runs through a fundholder relationship, not through the competitive side of the house.
