Giving Approach
Concentrated, high-dollar giving to a small set of religious and education grantees, including repeat awards; few grants overall but large individual commitments rather than many small gifts.
About Angels Among Us
Angels Among US Inc. gives at a scale that centers a few large, repeated commitments rather than broad distribution: its recent record includes a $2,000,000 grant to Augustine Institute Inc in 2025 and a $1,967,096 grant to the Roman Catholic Diocese of Boise in 2023. Those two awards frame the foundation’s pattern of supporting Catholic education and diocesan religious infrastructure alongside campus ministry, biblical theology, and faith-based family services. The grant list also shows recurring support for organizations such as Fellowship of Catholic University Students, St Paul Center for Biblical Theology, and Idaho Youth Ranch, suggesting a mix of religious formation and direct community aid. The foundation’s portfolio is strongly Catholic in orientation, with grants to institutions connected to theological education, parish life, and evangelization. A local Boise presence appears in support for diocesan and community organizations, while national Catholic groups receive some of the largest awards. The recent grants also include humanitarian support through faith-linked service organizations, showing that the foundation funds both religious mission and practical assistance. Its giving pattern is low-volume relative to total dollars, but individual awards are often substantial and repeated over multiple years.
