The Burton G and Anne C Greenblatt Foundation concentrates its giving on Jewish communal life, religious and cultural institutions, and targeted humanitarian/medical causes. Grants skew toward established Jewish organizations (both local and international) and a few larger, mission-specific recipients (including medical research/medical support). The foundation makes relatively large, often repeat grants and also uses donor-advised or philanthropic vehicles to channel support.
A $100,000 grant to the American Jewish Joint Distribution in both 2023 and 2024 signals the Burton G and Anne C Greenblatt Foundation Inc’s pattern of sizable support for Jewish communal relief and international humanitarian work. The foundation also repeated a $100,000 commitment to Sala Institute across those same two years, pairing communal aid with medical support in a way that appears throughout its recent grants. Its giving reaches established Jewish organizations, emergency loan and relief groups, Holocaust education institutions, and selected medical beneficiaries. That mix includes both national and regional recipients, with support flowing to organizations in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, California, and other states. The foundation’s portfolio also shows recurring relationships rather than isolated gifts: Chabad Lubavitch received grants in 2023 and 2024, as did Jewish Relief Agency, Friendship Circle of Central NJ, and China Lake Assn. Alongside these repeat awards, the foundation makes targeted grants to organizations tied to Jewish education, cultural memory, and direct humanitarian response. The overall picture is of a foundation using a relatively concentrated set of grantees to support Jewish communal infrastructure, emergency assistance, and mission-specific medical and educational work.
Jewish communal relief is a central theme. The foundation gave $100,000 to American Jewish Joint Distribution in 2024 and another $20,000 in 2023, showing sustained support for a major relief-oriented organization. Emergency financial assistance also appears in grants to Hebrew Free Loan Society for $100,000 and American Friends of Ogen for $50,000, both in 2023-2024. Jewish education and outreach show up through $50,000 grants to Chabad Lubavitch in both 2023 and 2024, plus $5,000 to Union for Traditional Judaism in 2024 for Torah study. Cultural and historical education is another clear lane: the foundation gave $60,000 to Aleph Society in 2023 and $15,000 to USC Shoah Foundation in 2023, alongside smaller Holocaust education grants to regional institutions.
Grant sizes cluster around mid-sized gifts with a $5,000 p25, $10,000 median, and $25,000 p75, but the foundation also makes several six-figure awards. The recent record shows repeat funding across multiple years for several recipients, including Sala Institute, Chabad Lubavitch, Jewish Relief Agency, Friendship Circle of Central NJ, China Lake Assn, and Madison Square Boys Girls Club Foun. That repeat pattern suggests ongoing relationships rather than one-off awards. The foundation appears to give directly to operating nonprofits and philanthropic intermediaries, including National Philanthropic Trust. It also funds individuals according to the provided profile, though the recent-grants list shown here is entirely organizational.
