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
- Donor-advised fund transfers to other sponsors (Schwab, Fidelity, AEF)
- Churches, dioceses, and Christian mission organizations
- Higher education foundations and independent religious schools
- Hospitals and disease-specific research or care (cancer, Alzheimer's)
- Human services, disaster relief, and international aid
- Arts, museums, zoos, and land and ocean conservation
Typical grant
Median grant is $12,349, with the middle half between $8,500 and $25,000. The seven- and eight-figure checks are almost all transfers to other donor-advised fund sponsors or single-donor legacy gifts; the small ones are individual donor recommendations to churches, universities, and national charities. With 12,013 grants to 9,107 recipients over two years, many organizations appear more than once, but repetition tracks the donor's habit rather than any institutional commitment.
Their words
Phrases from their own grant descriptions, worth speaking back to them.
- “FOR RECIPIENT'S EXEMPT PURPOSE”
- “Donor Do[nor] Advised”
- “FBO”
Positioning adjacent work
- Do not pitch the trust. Cultivate individual donors who hold accounts and can recommend a grant.
- Size any single ask at $10,000 to $25,000, matching the middle half of recorded grants.
- If courting an existing donor, mirror funded themes: university foundations, cancer centers, faith-based education, conservation.
- Register as a clean 501(c)(3) with a simple general-support use case; grants carry no program restrictions.
Worth knowing: This is a commercial donor-advised fund sponsor, not a grantmaking foundation with staff priorities. There is no review process to persuade; every dollar reflects an individual account holder's recommendation, so California, Minnesota, Texas, New York, and Florida concentrations reflect where donors live, and the largest line items are money moving to Schwab Charitable, Fidelity, and American Endowment rather than to programs.
