    About Cdv5 Foundation

    CDV5 Foundation concentrates local, high-dollar support in Grand Rapids-area institutions, prioritizing capital campaigns and facility/equipment investments. Their grants favor faith-based service providers (notably Christian education and mental health) and civic/cultural institutions, indicating a focus on strengthening community infrastructure and institutional capacity. Grants are large and targeted rather than broadly distributed, often enabling building projects or major capital needs.

    About Cdv5 Foundation

    A $925,000 capital campaign grant to Pine Rest Christian Mental Health Services stands out in Cdv5 Foundation’s recent giving and captures a larger pattern: the foundation backs sizable, targeted investments in institutions that serve Grand Rapids and nearby communities. Its recent grants show a strong tilt toward capital campaigns, facility projects, and selected operating support, with repeated support for Christian schools, mental health providers, and civic organizations. Grand Rapids Christian Schools received $800,000 for a capital campaign, while Grand Action Foundation 20 and the Gerald R. Ford Presidential Foundation each received $500,000 for capital campaign support. The foundation also funded local service providers such as Housing Kent and Boys & Girls Clubs of Grand Rapids, alongside faith-based education and community institutions. Cdv5 Foundation’s grantmaking is concentrated rather than diffuse: grants are often large enough to support building projects, equipment purchases, or other major institutional needs. The overall picture is of a funder using its resources to strengthen community infrastructure, especially where education, mental health, and civic life intersect in West Michigan.

    What Cdv5 Foundation Funds

    In mental health and wellness, Cdv5 Foundation gave $925,000 to Pine Rest Christian Mental Health Services for a capital campaign and $100,000 to the Mental Health Foundation of West Michigan for a capital campaign. In education, it supported Grand Rapids Christian Schools with an $800,000 capital campaign grant and Ada Christian School Society with $125,000 for a capital campaign. The foundation also backs youth-serving organizations: Grand Rapids Public Schools Foundation received $135,000 in 2023 and $125,000 in 2025 for GR8 Sports, Great Kids, while Chance Sports received $210,000 for West Michigan expansion. Civic and community infrastructure also appears in the recent record, including $500,000 to Gerald R Ford Presidential Foundation for a capital campaign and $200,000 to Housing Kent for general operating support.

    How Cdv5 Foundation Gives

    Typical grant size sits at $20,000 at the 25th percentile, $30,000 at the median, and $50,000 at the 75th percentile, but the recent record also includes several much larger capital awards. The pattern is not one-off: multiple organizations appear across years, including Housing Kent, Boys & Girls Clubs of Grand Rapids, Potter's House, Keystone Community Church, Rehoboth Christian School Association, and Grand Rapids Public Schools Foundation. Cdv5 Foundation is a regular funder and gives through open grantmaking programs, including online application options. Those programs accept unsolicited requests and can support general operating, capital, program/project, and event needs.
