All grants and commitments made from the beginning of the
Foundation through the end of its independent existence
(9/30/05) are included in this list.
-
Listed below are the names of the
nonprofit organizations that received grants, the number of
grants they received and the total amount of funds they
received from all of the grants combined.
-
The five main grant categories—Arts,
Education, Human Services, Health Care and Religious
Institutions—have been broken into sub-categories in an
effort to provide a more accurate picture of The Parsons
Foundation’s grant history. All categories are subjective,
and many recipients could readily appear in more than one
category. Where there was a question about where to put a
recipient, it was resolved by taking into account the
purpose of the grant.
