Eustace-Kwan Family Foundation
Menlo Park, CA
The Menlo Park-based foundation reported a 2023 grant of $247,949 for general-purpose funding, but its 2022 filing says it voted to liquidate and transfer its assets to a donor-advised fund, so it appears to have wound down. It previously funded preselected charitable organizations and did not accept unsolicited requests, according to that filing.
