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

  • Delaware River Watershed protection, restoration, and stormwater advocacy
  • Philadelphia parks, trails, and public space capital construction
  • Early childhood education quality, curriculum, and state advocacy
  • K-3 literacy and out-of-school learning in Philadelphia
  • Arts and culture capital campaigns for Philadelphia institutions
  • Climate justice, green jobs, and federal climate funding coordination

Typical grant

Median grant is $40,000 and half of all grants fall between $2,500 and $140,625, so most of the volume is small and mid-size project support. The seven- and eight-figure checks go almost entirely to capital construction (Penn's Landing Park, FDR Park, Kimmel Center, Philadelphia Zoo) and to pooled funds run through intermediaries like National Philanthropic Trust and Philadelphia City Fund. Multi-year and repeat giving is common, with organizations like Fairmount Park Conservancy, Philadelphia City Fund, Open Space Institute, and Public Health Management Corporation appearing more than once.

Their words

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

  • DRWI
  • CIRCUIT TRAILS LEADERSHIP
  • CAPITAL CAMPAIGN 2024
  • EARLY CHILDHOOD ADVOCACY CAMPAIGN
  • CLIMATE JUSTICE
  • GREEN STORMWATER INFRASTRUCTURE

Positioning adjacent work

  • Tie watershed or stormwater work explicitly to DRWI framing and to existing coalition partners like Stroud, OSI, or NWF.
  • Ask in the $300,000 to $500,000 range for a multi-year project; that is their comfortable band below capital.
  • Pair technical analysis with community organizing and advocacy; they fund both together, rarely research alone.
  • For education-adjacent work, connect to K-3 literacy or early childhood teacher professional development, not general school reform.

Worth knowing: This is a Philadelphia funder first and a Delaware River basin funder second: 3,108 of 4,421 grants went to Pennsylvania recipients, and out-of-state grants almost always serve the watershed or Philadelphia. A meaningful share of the largest dollars flows through intermediaries and pooled funds (National Philanthropic Trust, Philadelphia City Fund, Culture Trust, Reinvestment Fund), which means getting into an existing collaborative can matter more than a direct request.
