Mission & Focus Areas

The foundation’s stated purpose is to promote community development by funding initiatives that address challenges facing its membership and the communities it serves. Its mission is to affect living standards and the ability to pursue education so people can reach their full potential.

For grants, the foundation identifies affordable housing and homelessness in New Hampshire, and veterans, military members, and first responders in New Hampshire and Massachusetts as focus areas. Its website also describes support for education, housing and homelessness, and veterans, military members, and first responders. Its scholarship program serves eligible students pursuing higher education; it is distinct from grants to outside organizations.

Examples of supported organizations illustrate the work of its grantees. Marguerite’s Place says it provides housing and supportive services to homeless women and their children. Southeast NH Habitat for Humanity says it builds affordable homes in partnership with low-income families. The Robert Irvine Foundation describes its work as supporting the physical and mental well-being of service members, veterans, first responders, and their families.

Grantmaking

The foundation invites grant applications from 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations whose programs positively affect communities it serves. Applications are accepted year-round, with grantmaking typically in late spring for affordable housing and homelessness and late summer for veterans, military members, and first responders. The board reviews applications, and recipients are notified by email. Applications are submitted through the foundation’s website; additional supporting information may be emailed to the foundation. The foundation states that its support is through grants and that it does not provide sponsorships.

Review Cycle

Grant applications are accepted year-round. The foundation says affordable housing and homelessness grants are typically made in late spring, and veterans, military, and first-responder grants in late summer. It is unable to accept new applications for the spring 2026 New Hampshire affordable housing and homelessness cycle; it says to watch for updates about a fall 2026 cycle.
