Where the money went

Grants on the 2025 filing stayed close to home: Illinois ($3.3M) and California ($345K). Most small foundations give almost entirely within one state, and this one is the rule rather than the exception.

What they fund

Derived from where the money actually went rather than from a stated mission, which is the more useful of the two and frequently the different one.

  • Arts, Culture & Humanities
  • Education
  • Community & Economic Development
