    About Canarelli Family Foundation

    Canarelli Family Foundation’s recent giving shows a strong concentration on Nevada youth, families, and housing-related support, with repeated large grants to organizations serving Las Vegas Valley communities. In the latest grant list, The Shade Tree Incorporated received $180,000 in 2025, while Communities in Schools of Nevada received $171,396 that same year and $146,445 in 2024. Help of Southern Nevada also appears with a $150,000 general grant in 2025, alongside a $100,000 award in 2024 for the Shannon West Homeless Youth Center. The foundation’s support extends across education, health, housing sustainability, arts, and sports, but the recurring pattern is especially visible in grants tied to at-risk, disabled, and underserved youth and families. Its portfolio also includes organizations working with homeless youth, foster youth, veterans, and children with special needs, plus arts and recreation groups serving local participants. Several grantees reappear across multiple years, indicating ongoing relationships rather than one-time awards.

    What Canarelli Family Foundation Funds

    Education is a consistent theme. Clark County Public Education Foundation Inc. received $75,000 in 2025 for the Teacher's Pathway fund, and Communities in Schools of Nevada received multiple six-figure awards for general support. In housing and shelter work, The Shade Tree Incorporated received $150,000 in 2024 for housing and rental assistance, and $180,000 in 2025 for general and unrestricted support. Arts funding appears in awards to Nevada Ballet Theatre, including $100,000 in 2025 for Go, Dance, Move fund and $100,000 in 2024 for Future Dance Community Education. The foundation also supports services for vulnerable children and families through St Judes Ranch for Children-nevada Region Inc., which received $100,000 in 2025 and $80,000 in 2024.

    How Canarelli Family Foundation Gives

    Typical awards cluster in the mid-five-figure range, with a p25 of $10,000, a median of $25,000, and a p75 of $50,000. Recent grants also show repeated funding to the same organizations across multiple years, including several recurring awards to the same Nevada nonprofits. The foundation makes both general operating and program-specific grants, and its active programs include an annual grantmaking track and a letter-of-inquiry process for eligible 501(c)(3) organizations. It also accepts unsolicited applications through its general grantmaking program.

    Where Canarelli Family Foundation Makes Grants

    Grantmaking is highly local. Nevada recipients account for 89% of grants, and the largest share of recent awards goes to Las Vegas organizations such as Communities in Schools of Nevada, Help of Southern Nevada, Safe Nest Temporary Assistance for Domestic Crisis, and Opportunity Village Foundation. North Las Vegas appears as a recipient city through The Shade Tree Incorporated, while Boulder City appears through St Judes Ranch for Children-nevada Region Inc. Outside Nevada, the recent list includes Santa Ana, California, and Los Angeles, California, but the recipient country distribution is entirely U.S.-based.
