Overview

Mission

Private Grantmaking Foundations

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the foundation's positive operating resources came from contributions.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The foundation carried out 84% of its reported charitable disbursements directly.

The verdict

AVOID - The strongest available result is that the filed numbers largely add up. The filing does not identify all grant recipients and a relatively small share of spending goes to grants.
