The A Lindsay & Olive B O'Connor Foundation appears to focus its philanthropic resources locally on hospital infrastructure and capital improvements, supporting practical needs that keep a community healthcare provider functioning and accessible. Its single recorded grant fully funded facility upgrades (kitchen and parking) at O'Connor Hospital, indicating a hands-on, place-based approach to sustaining local health services.
A defining pattern for A Lindsay & Olive B O'connor Foundation Inc is its steady support for Delaware County institutions, especially projects that keep local facilities working and accessible. The largest recent award in the record went to O'connor Hospital in Delhi for kitchen upgrades and parking lot paving, a capital-style grant that points to practical, place-based giving. Other major grants show the same orientation: Catskill Revitalization Corporation received repeated support for operating expenses, while Hanford Mills Museum at East Meredith received operating support across multiple years. The foundation’s grant list also shows a strong interest in infrastructure and community assets rather than only short-term program spending. It funded emergency electrical power expansion at O'connor Hospital, equipment updates at Andes Public Library, and building expansion for the Historical Society of the Town of Middletown Delaware Country. In addition, grants to the Town of Delhi and Windsor Emergency Services Inc indicate support for community services that serve residents directly. Across the record, the foundation appears to favor hands-on, local investments that sustain institutions over time.
Hospital and access-related work is a clear thread in the record. A Lindsay & Olive B O'connor Foundation Inc gave $123,936 to O'connor Hospital for expanding emergency electrical power, and another $333,579 to the hospital for kitchen upgrades and parking lot paving. The foundation also backs rail and preservation work. Catskill Revitalization Corporation received $150,000 for train equipment repairs and upgrades, $125,000 for track repairs, replacement and material, and $100,000 for Roxbury Depot & Yard. Scholarship support appears in the grant list as well. SUNY Ag & Tech College Foundation Cobleskill received $82,500 for scholarships, and Hartwick College received $75,000 for Hartland Scholarships. Beyond those areas, the foundation funded community facilities such as the Town of Delhi playground and equipment updates at Andes Public Library.
Typical grant size sits at $2,854 at the 25th percentile, $5,000 at the median, and $15,000 at the 75th percentile, though the recent record also includes much larger awards for facilities, operating support, and capital projects. The grant list shows repetition to the same recipients across multiple years, including Catskill Revitalization Corporation, Hanford Mills Museum at East Meredith, and O'connor Hospital. The foundation is classified as a regular funder, not a donor-advised fund, and it funds individuals. Active grant programs include small grants up to $5,000, larger board-reviewed requests, scholarship committees, and operating or project support programs, all of which are marked as accepting unsolicited requests.
