The Bailes Family Foundation directs all its reported giving to a single Florida faith-based organization, indicating a focused commitment to religious activity within the state. Grants are concentrated on supporting the Florida Fellowship Foundation, suggesting the foundation prioritizes statewide faith community building, leadership and program support rather than diversified philanthropic interests.
Highly concentrated: all recorded funds were given to one grantee (Florida Fellowship Foundation) across multiple grants, indicating repeat, targeted support rather than broad or dispersed giving.
Bailes Family Foundation Inc’s reported giving is anchored by Florida Fellowship Foundation, which appears repeatedly as a general-support recipient across 2023, 2024, and 2025. That pattern points to a funder centered on faith-based infrastructure and ongoing operating support rather than a broad mix of causes. The foundation’s largest recent award in the data is $83,866, followed by another $72,671 grant to Florida Fellowship Foundation in 2025, showing continued support at a relatively high level for the same organization. Beyond that core relationship, the foundation also backs organizations tied to religious life, community services, education, and health in Florida and a small number of out-of-state recipients. Recent grants include support for Discovery Church in Orlando, Orlando Regional Healthcare, and Mission Emanuel in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, all labeled general support. The recurring grant pattern, plus the presence of scholarship and operational-support taxonomy tags, suggests a funder that uses unrestricted or general operating grants to sustain organizations over time.
Faith-based fellowship is the clearest theme in the grants list. In 2024, Bailes Family Foundation Inc gave $83,866 to Florida Fellowship Foundation for general support, and it followed with $72,671 in 2025 for the same purpose. General operating support also reaches other religious organizations, including $25,000 to Discovery Church in 2025 and $20,000 to St Lukes United Methodist Church in 2024. The foundation also supports services for people with disabilities and related community programs. It granted $50,000 to Ucp of Central Florida in 2024 and another $25,000 in 2025, both for general support. Health and care appear as another area through $50,000 to Orlando Regional Healthcare in 2025 and $20,250 to Grace Medical Home in 2024. Education is present as well, with $27,453 to Lake Highland Prep School in 2025 and $20,000 to Jacksonville Arts & Musical School in 2024.
Typical grants are small to mid-sized relative to the foundation’s annual giving, with a p25 of $2,500, a median of $5,000, and a p75 of $10,236. The recent list also shows a cluster of larger general-support awards, especially in the $20,000 to $83,866 range. The same recipients appear across multiple years, indicating recurring support rather than isolated one-time gifts. That includes repeated grants to Florida Fellowship Foundation, Orlando Regional Healthcare, Ucp of Central Florida, Mission Emanuel, Discovery Church, and YMCA of College Park. The foundation is a private family foundation, and the recorded grants are structured primarily as general support or operational support.
