Mission & Focus Areas

The filing’s mission field refers readers to Schedule O. Its other statements describe instruction, research, and student services: in fiscal year 2025, sponsored research took place in the medical, dental, and veterinary schools and in basic science departments, among other activities. The filing also says endowment funds are intended to support academic and research operations, student financial support and scholarships, real estate improvements, and future university obligations.

The 2025 grant recipients included research and higher-education institutions and hospitals. For example, JSI Research & Training Institute describes its own mission as improving health and education outcomes for individuals and communities. The University of Pittsburgh describes itself as a public research university serving its home region, Pennsylvania, and the nation. These are recipient descriptions, not statements of Tufts’ mission.

Grantmaking

The 2025 IRS filing reports 149 grants totaling $38,276,088. Listed grants ranged from $7,830 to $10,062,485, with a median of $76,881. The largest listed awards were to Tufts Medical Center ($10,062,485), Mass General Hospital ($2,542,813), the University of Massachusetts ($1,376,545), the Massachusetts Institute of Technology ($1,134,073), and Brigham & Women’s Hospital ($1,090,427); each was described as a subcontract grant award.

Other 2025 recipients included JSI Research & Training Institute ($478,196), the University of Pittsburgh ($464,059), and Wake Forest University Health Sciences ($276,029).

Tufts Community Grants are a separate program supporting nonprofit projects in Boston, Grafton, Medford, and Somerville. Tufts faculty and staff donations fund the program, and university faculty and staff evaluate proposals. In 2026, 40 programs received grants of $5,000 each. Eligible organizations must be 501(c)(3) nonprofits based in one of the four communities and must have had a Tufts student, faculty, or staff volunteer in the previous year. Grants may support a specific project, activity, program, or equipment purchase that advances the organization’s mission and serves the community; they are not intended for general operating budgets or staff salaries.
