The 17742 Foundation appears to fund faith-based, community restoration work, concentrating its resources on a single organization that provides recovery/restoration services. Its giving is operational and expansion-focused, supporting program growth and core operating needs for a local ministry. The foundation’s philanthropy is local and denominationally religious in orientation rather than broadly dispersed across causes.
Highly concentrated: a single large grant providing expansion and operating support to one faith-based grantee rather than multiple or small discretionary awards.
Notable grantees: The Bridge Restoration Ministry
A single 2024 commitment of $336,264 to The Bridge Restoration Ministry anchors 17742 Foundation’s recent giving and shows the scale at which it supports faith-based restoration work. That grant was labeled for expansion programs and operating support, and it sits alongside smaller operating grants to ministries, fellowships, churches, and Christian organizations. The pattern is narrow rather than dispersed: the foundation appears to concentrate on Christian restoration, recovery, and related ministry work, with support that helps organizations maintain operations and grow programs. Across the 2023-2024 grants listed here, the foundation funded both a large ministry partner and a set of smaller organizations that reflect a shared religious orientation. Its recipients include Christian Performing Artists' Fellowship Masterworks, Equipnet International Inc, Christian Missions in Many Lands, Intervarsity Christian Fellowshipusa, The Navigators, Mission Aviation Fellowship, Jubiliee Fellowship Church, Emmaus Bible College, and Calvary Monterey Church. The mix suggests an approach centered on operating support and capacity building rather than project-specific, one-off grantmaking. The foundation’s annual grant volume on file is $381,045, but most of the visible narrative comes from a handful of grants to Christian ministries and allied organizations.
Christian restoration and recovery ministry is the clearest theme in the 17742 Foundation’s giving. The largest grant in the list went to The Bridge Restoration Ministry for expansion programs and operating support, indicating direct backing for organizational growth. Smaller awards reinforce that same religious and ministry-based orientation through operating support to Christian Performing Artists' Fellowship Masterworks and Christian Missions in Many Lands. The foundation also supports campus, fellowship, and church-centered work. In 2023, it gave operating support to Intervarsity Christian Fellowshipusa and The Navigators, both of which fit a broader Christian formation and discipleship pattern. A separate grant to Jubiliee Fellowship Church shows that local congregational support is part of the mix as well. The recipient list also includes Mission Aviation Fellowship, Emmaus Bible College, and Calvary Monterey Church, all funded with operating support.
Typical awards are modest: the p25 grant size is $1,000, the median is $3,000, and the p75 is $4,526. The distribution is highly skewed by one large 2024 grant of $336,264, while most other awards sit in the low-thousands. The visible record shows repeated support across years for the same ministry partner, which points to recurring rather than purely one-time giving. Every listed grant is operating support except one that also includes expansion programs, suggesting a flexible, unrestricted style with a capacity-building emphasis. The foundation does not make program-related investments and does not fund individuals.

Yes. The recent grants list shows operating support across nearly all listed awards, including support to Christian Performing Artists' Fellowship Masterworks, Equipnet International Inc, Christian Missions in Many Lands, The Navigators, and Jubiliee Fellowship Church. One grant also included expansion programs alongside operating support.
The record shows recurrence for at least one grantee: The Bridge Restoration Ministry appears in both 2024 and 2024 entries, with funding for expansion programs and operating support in one grant and operating support in another. That indicates the foundation does make repeated awards to the same organization.
