Mission & Focus Areas
The foundation’s mission is to promote personal choice, preparedness, and compassionate, dignified end-of-life care for individuals and their loved ones. Its grantmaking supports nonprofit organizations working in hospice and palliative care, grief and bereavement, family and caregiver assistance, end-of-life planning and communication, and provider capacity-building. The foundation also identifies access and sustainability in hospice and palliative care, pediatric and cancer care, culturally responsive grief services, new models of end-of-life care, and planning and practical tools as areas of focus.
Examples of funded organizations illustrate the range of services supported. Coastal Kids Home Care describes its mission as providing pediatric medical, social-service, and therapy visits to children through age 21 on California’s Central Coast. Partnership for Children says it works to increase access to medical care for children with serious illnesses and support their families. Hazel Hawkins Hospital Foundation says it provides financial support to the San Benito Health Care District, while Natividad Medical Foundation says it helps Natividad provide health care and trauma services for people in Monterey County, including vulnerable residents.
Grantmaking
The foundation’s 2026 grant cycle awarded $1,145,000 to 14 community partners. The 2023 filing reports $1,388,764 in grants across 12 grants. In that year, the foundation reported funding 10 agencies serving 11,629 individuals and families. These are distinct reported figures. Among the 2023 grants listed, Coastal Kids Home Care received $482,839, Partnership for Children received $125,000, Hazel Hawkins Hospital Foundation received $60,000, and Natividad Medical Foundation received $13,000. Its 2025 filing, the latest on this page, reports 15 grants totaling $1.1 million.
For organizations not previously funded, the foundation’s grant-seeker guidance describes a two-step process: submit a letter of intent of no more than two pages, then submit a full proposal if invited. Eligibility is limited to registered 501(c)(3) nonprofits whose programs focus on end-of-life services and serve residents of Monterey and/or San Benito Counties. The foundation does not fund for-profit organizations, political or lobbying groups, or programs outside its service area.
The application instructions dated April 2025 required an online application and supporting documents, including a board-chair letter of support or an institutional letter of commitment, board and key-employee lists, tax-exemption documentation, financial statements and budgets, and a grant-request budget. The 2025 full-application deadline was May 1 at 5 p.m.; this was a past cycle as of September 29, 2026.
