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

Duke University, Duke Health, and Duke Divinity School operations and faculty
Child and family well-being: evidence-based parenting programs in NC and SC
United Methodist rural church support, clergy health, and minister pensions
Higher education at Davidson, Furman, and Johnson C. Smith
Health care access, rural hospitals, and children's behavioral health
Hurricane Helene disaster relief in western NC and upstate SC

Typical grant

Median grant is $200,000, with the middle half between roughly $107,000 and $375,000. The multi-million checks are reserved for the four beneficiary institutions named in the indenture (Duke, Davidson, Furman, Johnson C. Smith) and for large intermediary bets like Get Ready Guilford or Children's Trust of South Carolina. Giving is heavily repeating: 1,614 grants went to only 454 recipients, and named grantees like Duke Divinity, the two NC Methodist conferences, and MUSC show up year after year.

Their words

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

“evidence-based programs”
“to continue support for”
“implementation support”
“child welfare system”
“rural congregations”
“system of care”

Positioning adjacent work

Frame work as implementation or evaluation of an evidence-based model already in their portfolio: Triple P, Incredible Years, Strengthening Families.
Anchor the project in North Carolina or South Carolina counties explicitly; national scope without Carolinas delivery reads off-mission.
Ask $500,000 to $900,000 for a multi-year study or RCT; that matches their UNC and MUSC research grants.
Partner with or route through a statewide intermediary (Children's Trust, NC DHHS, First Steps) rather than going solo.

Worth knowing: This is a place-bound endowment: 1,518 of 1,614 grants went to NC and SC, and the four institutions the founder named absorb the largest awards, so an outside researcher is competing for the middle tier, not the top. Recent years show growth in children's behavioral health, AI in health care, and clergy well-being research, plus one-time Hurricane Helene relief in 2024.
