Restrictions
The Foundation supports capital projects, which are typically building purchase, construction, expansion, renovation, and/or land acquisition, as well as other forms of initiated grant making for capital, program, operating and other purposes in four priority areas - K-12 Education, Natural Resources, Community Development, and Informed Communities. The Foundation also makes recyclable commitments of capital in the form of Program Related Investments in support of its objectives in the four priority areas for initiated activity.
Financial Trends 2022 data appears limited (dashed line) because the IRS transitioned its e-filing system that year and only published 2 months of XML archives.
