filing years: $2,500
median grant

Based on grants this organization reported to the IRS for tax years 2020–2024. This is what they filed, not a complete record of their giving, and recent years may be incomplete because filings lag.

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

Pooled giving routed through Charities Aid Foundation America donor-advised fund
Food banks and hunger relief, national networks and local affiliates
Tree planting and land conservation: Nature Conservancy, Arbor Day Foundation
Youth development and college access for Black and low-income students
St. Louis civic anchors: United Way, public schools, Ranken Technical
Disaster response, veterans and military families, animal welfare

Typical grant

The median grant is $2,500 and half of everything falls between $2,000 and $5,000. Thousands of those small checks go to local food banks, Boys and Girls Clubs, Urban League and 100 Black Men chapters, and community groups near company offices. The big money is a separate world: $1M to $6M to national partners like The Nature Conservancy, Feeding America, United Way of Greater St. Louis, Arbor Day, Girls Inc, UNCF and Fisher House, and those national relationships recur year over year.

Their words

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

“Program Support”
“Various”
“Various Public Charities”

Positioning adjacent work

Anchor to hunger relief or tree planting and conservation, their two clearest national themes.
Ask $2,500 to $50,000 through a local chapter near a company office, not headquarters.
For six-figure asks, pitch a national scale partnership like Feeding America or Nature Conservancy.
Frame the request as program support for direct service, not research or evaluation.

Worth knowing: In 2024 the foundation moved $101.4 million through Charities Aid Foundation America, so most of the money never shows an end recipient on the 990, and the visible grants cluster in California, Florida, Texas, Missouri and Illinois where the company operates. Giving is high volume, small dollar, and looks driven by local office relationships and long standing corporate partnerships rather than by proposal review; almost nothing in the record funds research.
