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

Washington University School of Medicine research, education, MD recruitment
Barnes-Jewish Hospital research, patient support, capital, community services
BJC Home Care hospice and home care for patients
Community safety-net care for uninsured and underinsured St. Louis residents
Housing, food, and transport support for patients in treatment
Cancer support services, breast and gynecological cancer navigation

Typical grant

Two tiers, and they barely touch. Community grants run $6,500 to $80,000 with a median near $34,000, while the affiliated institutions take nearly all the money: Washington University School of Medicine alone received $16.9M to $56.7M a year, plus $4.6M to $6M annually to Barnes-Jewish Hospital and $1.3M to $2.3M to BJC Home Care. Community giving repeats reliably year over year at the same amount (Casa de Salud $50,000 three years running, Duo Dogs $20,000, Pedal the Cause $200,000-$250,000).

Their words

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

“RESEARCH, PATIENT SUPPORT, EDUCATION”
“UNINSURED AND UNDERINSURED PATIENTS”
“QUALITY OF LIFE”
“BARRIERS TO ACCESSING”
“IMPROVE THE HEALTH AND WELL-BEING IN THE ST. LOUIS COMMUNITY”

Positioning adjacent work

Tie work to patients served by Barnes-Jewish or Washington University clinicians, not to an abstract research field.
Ask $25,000 to $50,000 for community-based work; that band holds most of the non-affiliate grants.
Emphasize removing access barriers for uninsured, unhoused, or immigrant St. Louis patients.
Frame education and staff training explicitly; nursing and clinical education recurs across BJC entities.

Worth knowing: Every grant went to Missouri, and roughly 97 percent of dollars flowed to Washington University School of Medicine, Barnes-Jewish Hospital, and BJC entities, so this is a health system's captive foundation first. The outside grants go to a stable set of St. Louis safety-net and patient-support nonprofits that repeat annually at nearly identical amounts, which reads relationship-driven rather than competitive.
