About Cathedral Square
Cathedral Square Corporation’s recent grantmaking is defined by SASH grants to Vermont housing providers that pair housing with services for older adults. The largest grant in the list is $382,499 to Brattleboro Housing Authority in 2025, followed by $271,886 to Windham and Windsor Housing Trust, also in Brattleboro. Those awards show a recurring pattern: the foundation supports organizations that help seniors live in stable housing with supportive services rather than stand-alone housing alone. Across the recent grants list, the same housing-and-care model appears in multiple communities, including Winooski, Vergennes, Burlington, Montpelier, and rural parts of the state. Cathedral Square Corporation also funded Howard Center Inc in Burlington and several housing authorities and community trusts that work with older adults and service-dependent residents. The grant names and recipient mix point to a funder centered on affordable senior housing, supportive housing, and aging-related services. Its structure as a Pure DAF Provider fits that pattern of direct grant support to local organizations working on housing stability and care integration for older adults.
What Cathedral Square Funds
A clear throughline in the recent grants is support for housing organizations that also deliver services to older adults. In 2025, Cathedral Square Corporation gave $167,171 to Winooski Housing Authority for a SASH grant, and in 2024 it gave $160,976 to the same organization for the same purpose. It also backed Addison County Community Trust with $167,171 in 2025 and $160,976 in 2024, again under SASH. The foundation’s support reaches beyond housing authorities. It awarded $110,868 in 2025 to Howard Center Inc in Burlington for a SASH grant, linking housing with care services. Rural access also appears in the list: Rural Edge in Lyndonville received $67,236 in 2025. These grants align with affordable housing, supportive services for older adults, and integrated housing-plus-care work.
