    About All the Sky Foundation

    All The Sky Foundation concentrates almost all of its giving on education-focused organizations operating in Africa, with a heavy emphasis on Zimbabwe. The foundation makes a small number of large grants, often repeating support to the same organizations, and appears to prioritize literacy, school-based programs, and organizational capacity through unrestricted "foundation activities" gifts. Its grant portfolio is tightly focused geographically and thematically rather than broadly distributed across causes.

    Focus Areas

    Primary and girls' education programs in ZimbabweLiteracy, school libraries and reading-program support (via international NGOs like Room to Read)Capacity and operational support for grassroots African education and child-welfare organizationsPrograms serving women and children in Zimbabwe and surrounding regions

    Who They Fund

    not specifiednot statedunknown

    Giving Approach

    Concentrated, high-dollar giving: few (7) grants totaling just over $1M, with repeated multi-grant relationships to a small set of grantees; grants appear unrestricted/operational in nature ("foundation activities") and focused geographically in Zimbabwe/Africa.

    About All the Sky Foundation

    All the Sky Foundation’s recent giving is built around education for girls and children, with recurring support for organizations that work in Zimbabwe and adjacent regions and a steady use of unrestricted "foundation activities" grants. The largest recent awards in the record go to Room to Read, which received $200,120 in 2024, $200,060 in 2023, and $150,090 in 2025. Hope of Children and Women is another repeated recipient, with grants of $197,664 in 2023, $130,951 in 2024, and $116,073 in 2025. Those patterns show a funder that stays with a small set of partners over multiple years rather than spreading funds widely across many unrelated causes. The portfolio also includes organizations tied to Zimbabwe and child protection work, including Simuka Africa Zimbabwe and programs connected to women’s and girls’ opportunity. A donation-driven matching program for Zimbabwe birth certificate registration reinforces the foundation’s interest in legal identity, access to education, and child welfare. Overall, the foundation’s grantmaking looks narrow in subject matter and intentionally repetitive in partner selection, with education and girls’ opportunity at the center.

    What All the Sky Foundation Funds

    Education is the clearest theme in the grant record. The foundation supported Room to Read with foundation-activities grants of $200,120 in 2024, $200,060 in 2023, and $150,090 in 2025, matching its emphasis on literacy and school-based programming. Zimbabwe-focused work is another core area. It gave Simuka Africa Zimbabwe $63,789 in 2023, $23,685 in 2024, and $43,837 in 2025, aligning with its stated interest in girls’ education and child protection in Zimbabwe. The record also shows support for organizations working with women and children in East Africa and beyond. Hope of Children and Women received $197,664 in 2023, $130,951 in 2024, and $116,073 in 2025, while Enventure Enterprises received $18,830 in both 2024 and 2025.

    How All the Sky Foundation Gives

    Typical grant size is small relative to a few much larger awards: p25 is $1,130, median is $3,860, and p75 is $14,305. The distribution suggests a mix of modest grants and a limited number of high-dollar foundation-activities gifts. The same recipients appear across multiple years, including Room to Read, Hope of Children and Women, Simuka Africa Zimbabwe, Enventure Enterprises, Nepal Safe House, Teach for Afghanistan, Global Compassion, and Sol Foundation. The foundation is a Regular Funder, and it accepts unsolicited applications through its monthly grant and project-and-partnership funding programs.
