Mission & Focus Areas

The foundation’s stated mission is to respond to immediate requests for assistance and improve the lives of local families touched by tragedy by matching charitable donations from Greg’s media audience. Its 2024 filing describes two grantmaking programs: assistance for individuals or families impacted by a tragic event, and assistance for victims of the Boston Marathon bombing.

The foundation’s website also describes Restaurant Strong, which supports restaurant owners and employees, and a program with Jameson for Massachusetts hospitality workers who have faced tragedy. The latter is limited to bar owners, beverage managers, bartenders, and barbacks.

Grantmaking

The foundation’s website invites nominations for individuals or families who have experienced a recent tragedy. The nomination application is for New England residents and asks for details about the incident; links to news articles or videos are optional. A separate Jameson partnership accepts nominations for eligible Massachusetts hospitality workers in specified roles. The 2024 filing says a board meeting is held to decide whether to issue grants or other assistance, with approval requiring a majority vote.

The website describes Restaurant Strong grants for restaurant industry employees affected by COVID-19 closures and says applicants must meet the fund’s criteria. It also reports that the Restaurant Strong Fund, in partnership with Grubhub and Samuel Adams, has raised over $15 million; this is a fundraising figure, not a reported amount of grants awarded.
