The Bailey Family Foundation concentrates its giving locally in Vero Beach/Indian River County, splitting support between health care (particularly hospice/palliative services) and private K–12 education. Grants are charitable, unrestricted/purpose-general awards to established local institutions rather than many small community groups. The foundation appears to prioritize sustaining key community institutions that provide end-of-life care and independent school education.
Highly concentrated, small portfolio (two grants) with mid-size gifts to established local institutions; mix of health and education funding rather than broad diversified giving. Grants appear one-off or occasional targeted gifts rather than many recurring small awards.
Bailey Family Foundation Inc has a clear pattern of backing established community institutions through charitable, purpose-general grants, with its largest recent award going to Vna Hospice of Indian River County Inc for $75,000 in 2025. That kind of support fits a broader portfolio that repeatedly returns to hospice care and independent schooling in Vero Beach, while also extending to churches, medical clinics, and regional nonprofits in North Carolina and beyond. The foundation’s recent record shows repeated support for Saint Edward’s School in Vero Beach, including $45,000 in 2023, $31,000 in 2024, and $35,000 and $20,000 in 2025. It also backed Vna Hospice of Indian River County Inc more than once, including $12,400 in 2023 and $9,650 in 2024, alongside the larger 2025 grant. Grants are described broadly as charitable purposes rather than tightly restricted project awards, which suggests flexibility in how recipient institutions use the funds. The mix of local health, education, and community-serving organizations points to a funder focused on sustaining core civic infrastructure rather than supporting a narrow program niche.
Hospice and palliative care is one of the clearest themes in the foundation’s giving. In 2025, it awarded $75,000 to Vna Hospice of Indian River County Inc for charitable purposes, following prior grants of $12,400 in 2023 and $9,650 in 2024. Private K–12 education is another recurring area: Saint Edward’s School received $45,000 in 2023, $31,000 in 2024, and $35,000 plus $20,000 in 2025. The foundation also supports faith-based and community-facing organizations. Community Church of Vero Beach received $12,075 in 2025, $10,650 in 2024, and $10,075 in 2023, while The Source received $13,000 in 2025 and $8,000 in 2024. Outside Florida, it has funded organizations such as Carolina Day School Inc and Abccm Doctors Medical Clinic Inc in Asheville.
Typical grants are modest to mid-sized: the p25 is $1,000, the median is $2,000, and the p75 is $5,000. The recent list also shows occasional larger awards, but most gifts cluster around smaller charitable-purpose checks. Recipients appear across multiple years, including Saint Edward’s School, Vna Hospice of Indian River County Inc, Community Church of Vero Beach, Samaritans Purse, Mountaintrue, and Abccm Doctors Medical Clinic Inc, which points to recurring support rather than one-time-only giving. The foundation is classified as a Regular Funder and does not fund individuals or make program-related investments. The grants shown are described as charitable purposes, including general support for established nonprofits.

Giving is concentrated in Florida, with 38% of grants going to recipients in the HQ state. Vero Beach appears often, including grants to Vna Hospice of Indian River County Inc, Saint Edward’s School, The Source, and the Community Church of Vero Beach. Outside Florida, North Carolina is a major destination, with repeated grants to Asheville-based groups such as Carolina Day School Inc, Mountaintrue, and Abccm Doctors Medical Clinic Inc, plus Boone and Brevard recipients. The recipient-country distribution is entirely U.S.-based, with 521 grants in the United States.
The recent grants point to established nonprofits serving community needs, especially hospice and palliative care, private K–12 education, churches, and local service organizations. Examples include Vna Hospice of Indian River County Inc, Saint Edward’s School, Community Church of Vero Beach, and The Source.
Yes. Several recipients appear in multiple years. Saint Edward’s School received grants in 2023, 2024, and 2025; Vna Hospice of Indian River County Inc appears in 2023, 2024, and 2025; and Community Church of Vero Beach appears in 2023, 2024, and 2025.
The foundation’s grant-size distribution is small to mid-sized: p25 is $1,000, median is $2,000, and p75 is $5,000. The recent grant list also includes larger awards, but the center of gravity is in relatively modest checks.
Its top giving state is South Carolina, while 38% of grants go to recipients in Florida, the foundation’s HQ state. Recent Florida recipients include organizations in Vero Beach, and North Carolina also receives a visible share of grants.
They are consistently labeled as charitable purposes. That wording, along with the presence of repeated support to established institutions, suggests broad-purpose grants rather than tightly specified project awards.
