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

Racial equity and community power under "Promise of an Equitable Future"
Early care, education and school districts serving young children
Family economic security, jobs, workforce and CDFI capital
Place-based investment in Battle Creek, Detroit and West Michigan
Health equity and food systems, including Haiti and Mexico

Typical grant

Median grant is $100,000, with the middle half running $7,500 to $225,000, so most of the file is modest and a long tail of small awards sits below $10,000. The seven-figure checks go to place-based anchors and long-term partners: school districts, community foundations, universities, and national intermediaries like New Venture Fund, Tides and Rockefeller Philanthropy Advisors. Repeat giving is the norm, with the same names appearing across years and sometimes twice in one year under different program labels.

Their words

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

“Promise of an Equitable Future”
“Jobs and Family Economic Security”
“Early Care and Education”
“Health and Health Equity”
“Food, Strong and Equitable Food Systems”

Positioning adjacent work

Name one program label exactly, and pick the one your work actually fits rather than straddling two.
Anchor the work in Michigan, Mississippi, New Mexico, New Orleans, Haiti or Mexico.
Ask $150,000 to $500,000 for a first relationship; seven figures goes to existing anchors.
Lead with children and families as beneficiaries, with community-led leadership as the method.

Worth knowing: Michigan takes 1,928 of 7,234 grants and Battle Creek, the foundation's home town, absorbs a large share of that through the school district, the community foundation, Battle Creek Unlimited and local nonprofits. Beyond Michigan the money clusters tightly in Mississippi, New Mexico, Haiti and Mexico, and much of the national spending moves through a small set of fiscal sponsors and policy intermediaries in DC and New York, which signals relationship-driven rather than open giving.
