Where this information comes from
Every fact on this page is published from the foundation’s own IRS Form 990-PF for the tax period ending 2024-12-31 (EIN 850374112). Part XV of that form is where a private foundation that accepts unsolicited applications must tell the IRS — and the public — who to send applications to, what to include, any deadlines, and any restrictions on awards. Most of these programs are never listed on scholarship search sites; the filing is often the only public record they exist.
