Atlas Insurance Agency Foundation
Atlas Insurance Agency Foundation is a private foundation based in Honolulu, Hawaii. Its 2023 IRS filing is marked as a final return: the foundation reported that it merged and distributed its remaining assets to Tradewind Group Foundation on November 30, 2023, and described that as its final distribution. The foundation therefore appears to have wound down and stopped grantmaking.
