The Alex G Nason Foundation concentrates on community-level investments that support children, youth development, and family stability, with a strong emphasis on education, arts/music programs, and local environmental conservation. Their giving frequently targets grassroots and regionally based nonprofits—especially in Indian River County (Vero Beach/Gifford) and select urban social-service organizations—supporting program operations, scholarships, and capacity-building. Grants also address mental health, homelessness/domestic-violence services, and occasionally national disaster/relief intermediaries. Many recipients receive multiple modest-to-mid-sized grants, indicating ongoing operational support for core local partners.
Alex G Nason Foundation Inc. consistently backs community-based groups that work with children, youth, and families, with a visible mix of education, arts, behavioral health, and basic-needs support. One of its largest recent grants went to Global Giving for work to "transform aid and philanthropy to accelerate community-led change," showing interest in intermediary models as well as direct local giving. The foundation also supports neighborhood institutions that serve children through school-based and youth-development programs, including Sun Grove Montessori School in Fort Pierce and Indian River Charter High School in Vero Beach. Its portfolio includes youth arts and music organizations, family-safety services, and programs that help children and adolescents access stable supports without barriers. Recent grants also point to a practical, operations-oriented style: funding often goes toward staff training, immediate service access, or program support rather than narrow project-only work. Across the recent grants list, the foundation appears to favor modest awards to organizations that are rooted in their communities and serving vulnerable populations, especially in Florida, Seattle, Los Angeles, and Connecticut.
Education appears throughout the foundation’s giving, especially when schools are building staff capacity or serving children in alternative settings. Sun Grove Montessori School received $14,500 in 2024 and $14,500 in 2023 to support the education and training of staff to benefit children, and Indian River Charter High School received $8,500 in 2023. Arts and music are another recurring thread: The Vera Project received $6,000 in 2025 for an all-ages, youth-driven music and art space, while Gifford Youth Orchestra received $5,000 in 2024. The foundation also funds direct behavioral-health and safety services. Mental Health Association in Indian River County received $10,000 in 2025 to provide immediate access with no barriers to mental health care, and Hibiscus Children’s Center received $6,000 in 2024 for safety, shelter, and recovery programs for abused children and families.
Typical grants cluster at a modest scale: p25 is $3,000, median is $3,000, and p75 is $5,000. The recent list shows repeated support for several recipients across multiple years, including Sun Grove Montessori, Nicaphoto, Together Rising, Hibiscus Children’s Center, Los Angeles Mission, Young Women Empowered, and Gifford Youth Orchestra. That pattern suggests ongoing relationships rather than one-time awards in several cases. The foundation is a private family-style grantmaker by behavior, with direct charitable grants and no program-related investments. It also funds individuals, which aligns with a flexible, community-facing approach.

Moderately concentrated regional giving: many repeat, small-to-mid-size grants to the same local organizations (multiple 2–3x grants), supplemented by occasional national intermediaries. Emphasis is on program/support funding rather than large capital gifts, with distributed support across education, arts, environment, and social services.
Notable grantees: Sun Grove Montessori School, Gifford Youth Orchestra, Indian River Land Trust, Lifebridge Community Services / Hibiscus Children's Center, GlobalGiving
