Mission & Focus Areas
The foundation’s mission is to provide grants to nonprofit organizations that immediately impact children and families in its community. It says it supports organizations serving children and families facing challenges including special needs, abuse, foster care, and homelessness, as well as educational programs and financial literacy.
The 2024 grantees illustrate a range of services. Toys for Kids says it provides toys, school supplies, and other assistance to homeless and disadvantaged children. Hillside Connection describes using basketball and youth-development activities to create opportunities for children in Southern Colorado Springs. Vine Maple Place says it works to stop family homelessness by helping single parents and children build stability and self-sufficiency. The Crayon Initiative says it enriches hospitalized children through art and imagination. Other 2024 grantees describe work involving dementia support, equine-based services, and food and emergency assistance.
Grantmaking
The foundation’s filing narrative separately reports that it granted $236,498 to organizations in 2024 and provided $7,700 directly as charitable assistance to individuals; these figures differ from the grant sum in the filing’s financial data.
Among the itemized 2024 grants, Seattle’s Union Gospel Mission received $33,110 to support homeless people in Seattle, and Toys for Kids received $20,000 for scholarships and toys for underprivileged children. The Wright Way Foundation received $19,756 for back-to-school supplies for underprivileged children in the Rainier Valley area. Other listed grants included $12,765 to Hillside Connection, $12,000 to Vine Maple Place, and $10,198 to The Crayon Initiative.
For grants to organizations, the foundation says its board seeks nonprofits working to support children and families in need and decides which organizations receive grants. The filing also describes the Family First Fund, which provides emergency assistance payments to Leisure Care employees when staff report an emergency and the foundation reviews the need. The filing does not describe an application process for outside organizations.
