About Charles Antetokounmpo Family Foundation
A $220,000 general-support grant to International Rescue Committee anchors Charles Antetokounmpo Family Foundation’s 2024 giving profile and shows how the foundation uses unrestricted funding to back organizations working on basic needs and broader social support. The foundation also directed $160,000 to Milwaukee Diaper Mission and $100,000 to Nabu Global Inc., indicating a mix of emergency-relief, family-support, and education-related grantmaking. Its stated work centers on sport and youth development, basic needs, education, community development, and clean water and health infrastructure, with general operating support and core funding appearing in the topic taxonomy. CAFF’s grantmaking is national in scope, with recipient organizations in multiple U.S. cities and a pattern of larger awards alongside smaller strategic grants. The presence of grants for community-focused organizations such as Geanco Foundation and Opportunity International suggests a preference for partnerships that can move resources into programs with defined local or international reach. Overall, the foundation combines unrestricted support with program-linked funding across youth, education, and basic-needs priorities.
What Charles Antetokounmpo Family Foundation Funds
Education is a consistent thread in the foundation’s grantmaking. It gave $100,000 to Nabu Global Inc. for general support, and its active programs include scholarships through Deree University and education support for refugees and asylum seekers. Basic needs also appear prominently: a $160,000 grant to Milwaukee Diaper Mission for general support fits with the foundation’s stated interest in food, housing, and family services. In community development and partnership funding, Charles Antetokounmpo Family Foundation awarded $50,000 to Opportunity International for general support, aligning with its use of strategic partners to deliver microfinance and vocational-training related work. The foundation also supports literacy through NABU programming, including original books in Nigerian languages and distribution efforts.
