    About 2819

    2819 INC predominantly funds Orthodox Christian institutions and ministries, concentrating support on local congregations, monastic communities, youth ministries, and faith-based education. Grants are largely unrestricted/general purpose and often repeated to the same organizations, indicating ongoing operating support rather than one-off projects. The foundation also makes occasional capital or facilities grants for faith-based programming (e.g., camp construction).

    About 2819

    A single Oklahoma City church received the foundation’s largest recent grant: $258,640 to St Elijah Christian Church in 2025 for general purposes. That award sits at the center of 2819 Inc’s grant pattern, which favors Orthodox Christian institutions and ministries with unrestricted support. The foundation’s recent giving also includes repeated general-purpose grants to Orthodox Youth Ministries in Washington, DC and to Christian Heritage Academy in Del City, Oklahoma, showing sustained backing for youth formation and faith-based education. Other recent awards extend to Orthodox Christian Fellowship in Brookline, Massachusetts, St Tikhon’s Monastery in South Canaan, Pennsylvania, and St Tikhon’s Orthodox Theological Seminary in Waymart, Pennsylvania, linking parish support with monastic and seminary funding. A smaller but distinct line of support goes to camp and facility work, including a $25,000 grant to Home Integration Inc for building a new Camp Benedictine facility. Across the recent record, 2819 Inc’s giving reads as ongoing operating support for Orthodox and Benedictine/Catholic faith communities rather than project-by-project philanthropy.

    What 2819 Funds

    Parish support is a clear thread in 2819 Inc’s grantmaking. In 2024, St Elijah Christian Church received $57,060 for general purposes, followed by a much larger $258,640 award in 2025 for the same purpose. The foundation also backs Orthodox youth formation: The Orthodox Youth Ministries received $50,000 in 2023, $50,000 in 2024, and $25,000 in 2025, all listed as general purposes. Faith-based education appears in another recurring line of support. Christian Heritage Academy in Del City, Oklahoma, received $50,000 in both 2023 and 2024, again for general purposes. The foundation also supports college ministry through Orthodox Christian Fellowship, which received $25,000 in 2023, $25,000 in 2024, and $25,000 in 2025 for ministry to college students.

    How 2819 Gives

    Typical grant sizes cluster around a $5,309 25th percentile, $25,000 median, and $50,000 75th percentile. The recent record shows repeated awards to the same organizations across multiple years, especially St Elijah Christian Church, The Orthodox Youth Ministries, Christian Heritage Academy, Orthodox Christian Fellowship, and Grass Roots Development Inc. Most awards are general-purpose rather than project-specific, with one facilities grant for Camp Benedictine construction. 2819 Inc is a private foundation rather than an operating nonprofit, and it does not make program-related investments. It does not fund individuals.
