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

Charitable federations that redistribute workplace donor designations
United Way affiliates, national and local chapters
Health and medical research charity federations
Animal welfare and rescue groups, national and county-level
Military, veteran, and first responder service organizations
Regional food banks and public media stations

Typical grant

The median grant is $9,478 and half of all grants land between $6,691 and $16,262, so the routine check is four to low five figures. The money is extremely top-heavy: the largest awards go to federation intermediaries such as CHC Creating Healthier Communities at $6.4M, United Way of the National Capital Area at $3.9M, and America's Best Charities at $2.9M, which then pass funds on to member charities. With 2,907 grants to 1,233 recipients over four years, most organizations appear in multiple years, consistent with recurring payroll designations rather than one-time decisions.

Their words

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

“PROGRAM SUPPORT”
“CHARITIES OF AMERICA”
“LOCAL INDEPENDENT CHARITIES”
“COMMUNITY SHARES”
“UNITED WAY”

Positioning adjacent work

Seek membership in a funded federation (CHC, America's Charities, EarthShare, Global Impact) rather than pitching Madison directly.
Match one of their heavy categories: medical research, animal welfare, veterans, food security, or public media.
Size expectations at $7,000 to $16,000 annually per designation stream, not a single large ask.
Emphasize a National Capital Area donor base and presence, where MD, VA, and DC dominate distributions.

Worth knowing: This reads as a workplace-giving conduit, not a discretionary grantmaker: every grant is labeled PROGRAM SUPPORT, and the top ten recipients are charity federations and United Ways that absorb the large majority of the $189M. Geography follows the federal workforce, with MD, VA, and DC accounting for 941 of the grants, so visibility to those donors matters far more than a proposal.
