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

Workforce development and job training for underserved adults
Affordable housing, CDFIs, and community development finance
Health nonprofits: heart, cancer, diabetes, hospital foundations
Community colleges, HBCUs, and postsecondary access programs
Civil rights and Hispanic/Black community organizations
Arts, museums, and hunger relief in bank-market cities

Typical grant

The median grant is $500 and half of everything falls between $105 and $1,100, which reflects tens of thousands of employee matching gifts and small local checks. Real institutional money sits at $250,000, a very common ceiling for national programs, community colleges, and CDFIs, with a handful of $1M to $2.5M awards to national health charities and Charlotte anchors. Large recipients recur year over year and often appear more than once in a single year with separate awards.

Their words

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

“PROGRAM/OPERATING SUPPORT”
“workforce development”
“community development”
“economic mobility”

Positioning adjacent work

Anchor the ask to jobs, skills, or economic mobility outcomes rather than to research findings alone.
Ask $250,000 for a named program; that is their standard institutional grant size.
Partner with a community college, CDFI, or health nonprofit already in their portfolio.
Emphasize Charlotte, or a major bank market like NY, CA, TX, FL, MA.

Worth knowing: This is corporate giving run through a foundation, so decisions track bank markets and existing relationships, not open review; Charlotte is heavily favored relative to its size. The 34,000-recipient tail is mostly matching gifts and disaster or United Way giving, so the count of grants overstates how many organizations have a real funding relationship.
