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

Local news business sustainability and nonprofit newsroom revenue models
University research centers on technology, democracy and the information environment
Digital integration for arts organizations in Knight cities (Miami, Detroit, Akron, Philadelphia, Charlotte)
Journalism tools, data infrastructure and AI adoption in newsrooms
Place-based civic investment: parks, housing, downtown development in Akron and Detroit
Nonpartisan technology and competition policy research in Washington

Typical grant

Median grant is $105,000, with the middle half between $25,000 and $300,000. The seven-figure checks go to national local-news intermediaries (Associated Press, GroundTruth, American Journalism Project, Institute for Nonprofit News) and to pooled funds at The Miami Foundation; university research centers typically land between $500,000 and $1.3 million. Repeat giving is common and often explicitly labeled 'renewed support,' with the same institutions appearing across multiple years and multiple grants.

Their words

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

“nonpartisan”
“long-term sustainability”
“local news”
“digital integration”
“renewed support”
“fact-based”

Positioning adjacent work

Tie your work to information ecosystem health or newsroom sustainability, not to journalism as a public good in the abstract.
University researchers should propose a named center with a research-to-practice pipeline; ask $500,000 to $1.3 million.
Emphasize nonpartisan framing explicitly. It appears in nearly every policy and research grant description.
Show a path off the grant: earned revenue, endowment, or matched public dollars like ARPA funds.

Worth knowing: Money concentrates in five Knight cities, above all Miami, plus a national journalism layer in New York and DC; work outside those geographies needs a national field-building rationale. The Miami Foundation functions as their regranting vehicle and absorbs large sums, and a small set of repeat grantees (Georgetown, Pew, AP, Miami institutions) take a big share, which makes existing relationships and Knight-branded centers a real advantage.
