About Clarendon Foundation
Clarendon Foundation centers its giving on classroom support for K-12 and college settings, with repeated awards to the same schools across multiple years. The pattern is visible in its grants to Univ of Arkansas Three Rivers in Malvern, Arkansas, which received classroom support in 2023, 2024, and 2025, including a $15,120 grant in 2023 and $15,112 grants in both 2024 and 2025. Faith Lutheran Middle School & High School in Las Vegas received $9,000 in 2023 and $11,500 in both 2024 and 2025, showing a similar multi-year relationship. The foundation’s mission statement emphasizes high-quality educational materials and accessibility for teachers and parents working with young learners, and its recent grants align with that emphasis through direct support for classrooms, instructional materials, and school-based resources. Other recurring recipients include Clintonville Academy in Columbus, Ohio, and Colorado Mesa University in Grand Junction, Colorado, indicating that the funder works with a mix of K-12 schools and higher-education institutions when the grant purpose is classroom support. The grant list suggests a focus on practical educational aid rather than broad institutional operating support, with most awards tied to a specific classroom-support purpose.
What Clarendon Foundation Funds
Education is the clearest focus area in Clarendon Foundation’s recent giving. Univ of Arkansas Three Rivers in Malvern received classroom support across three consecutive years, which places the foundation’s work in direct instructional funding. At the K-12 level, Clintonville Academy in Columbus, Ohio, received classroom support in 2023, 2024, and 2025, showing continued attention to school-level needs. The foundation also supports faith-based schools: All Saints Catholic School in Lewiston, Idaho, received classroom support in 2023, 2024, and 2025, while Grace Christian School in Anchorage received awards in 2023, 2024, and 2025. Higher education appears as well, with Colorado Mesa University in Grand Junction, Colorado, receiving classroom support in three successive years. Across these recipients, the purpose text stays consistent, indicating a narrow funding pattern centered on classroom resources and direct teaching support.
How Clarendon Foundation Gives
Clarendon Foundation’s typical grant size is tightly grouped: p25 is $5,400, median is $5,700, and p75 is $8,692. The recent grant list shows repeated awards to the same recipients over multiple years, including 2023 through 2025 for several organizations, so this looks like a recurring-grant pattern rather than one-off gifts. The foundation is a regular funder, not a DAF, and it does not fund individuals or make program-related investments. The available grants are mostly earmarked for classroom support, which fits a direct-service, teacher-level funding style.
