This foundation makes modest, targeted gifts primarily to local/regional social service and recreation programs that serve children, families, and people with disabilities. A large share of funding goes to a small number of organizations (including repeat support), with particular interest in summer camps, accessible play/recreation, and programs that improve outcomes for vulnerable populations. Although based in Dallas, recent grants are concentrated in the Arkansas/Little Rock area.
Co-tuw Marion & Miriam Rose repeatedly backs a small cluster of Little Rock organizations serving children, families, and people with disabilities, with several recipients appearing across multiple years. The largest recent gifts in the data are $20,000 grants to Our House Inc for improving outcomes for vulnerable youth and families, to Kiwanis Activities of Little Rock for the Pfeifer Camp summer program, and to Camp Aldersgate Inc for summer camp programs. Those awards sit alongside support for accessible recreation, youth enrichment, and service programs that address basic needs and family stability. The foundation’s pattern is defined by targeted support rather than broad dispersal. Recent grants include funding for United Cerebral Palsy of AR for an accessible playground, Baptist Health Foundation for pregnancy wellness centers, and Ronald Mcdonald House Charities of Arkansas for dental care for underserved families and for feeding families. Other awards support the Arkansas Symphony Orchestra, Access Group Inc, Methodist Family Health Foundation Inc, and Arkansas Foodbank Network, showing a mix of recreation, education, health, and food-related services. Across the list, Little Rock recipients dominate, and repeated awards suggest ongoing relationships with a limited set of organizations.
Summer and recreation programs are a clear emphasis. Co-tuw Marion & Miriam Rose gave $20,000 to Camp Aldersgate Inc for summer camp programs and another $20,000 to Kiwanis Activities of Little Rock for the Pfeifer Camp summer program, then continued with $10,000 to Camp Aldersgate Inc in 2025. Food and family support also appears often. The foundation awarded $15,000 and $10,000 to Arkansas Foodbank Network for the school pantry program, and $15,000 to Ronald Mcdonald House Charities of Arkansas for feeding families with a program described in the grant purpose text. In health-related work, they supported Baptist Health Foundation with $15,000 for pregnancy wellness centers and Ronald Mcdonald House Charities of Arkansas with $15,000 for dental care for underserved families. Education and enrichment show up through $15,000 to Access Group Inc for family and consumer sciences, plus grants to The Arkansas Symphony Orchestra for music and string programs.
Typical grants cluster tightly around $10,000 to $15,000, with p25 at $10,000, a median of $15,000, and p75 also $15,000. The recent record shows repeat support to the same organizations across 2023, 2024, and 2025, including Our House Inc, Methodist Family Health Foundation Inc, Arkansas Foodbank Network, Access Group Inc, Camp Aldersgate Inc, The Arkansas Symphony Orchestra, and Easterseals Arkansas. That pattern points to ongoing relationships rather than one-off gifts. The foundation is structured as a grantmaker only; it does not fund individuals and does not make program-related investments.
