Baker Tilly Foundation

About Baker Tilly Foundation

Baker Tilly Foundation’s recorded giving is shaped by a single large grant to American Online Giving Foundation Inc. for charitable purpose, a signal that it supports the infrastructure behind charitable giving as well as direct nonprofit work. The foundation also shows a steady pattern of support for universities and community organizations, with grants to University of Illinois Foundation in Chicago, Uwm Foundation Inc. in Milwaukee, and University of Maryland College Park Foundation in College Park. That mix points to a funder that moves between philanthropy infrastructure and mission-based organizations tied to education, health and wellness, and human services. Its active grant programs reinforce that profile. General Grantmaking supports organizations working in education, health and wellness, and human services, while Baker Tilly Wishes is a team-member-nominated program that adds volunteer time alongside grant support. The recent grant list includes both institutional recipients and local nonprofits, such as Temple University-fox School of Business in Philadelphia and The University of Texas at Dallas in Richardson. The foundation’s pattern is broad in geography but consistent in purpose: charitable support directed toward community benefit and the systems that help deliver it.
