Constellation Energy Foundation concentrates giving on education, workforce development, and community well‑being with a noticeable emphasis on energy and STEM learning. Their grants include large gifts to higher education and independent school partners, support for career and technical training organizations, and significant local Baltimore-area community investments. The portfolio mixes national organizations (SkillsUSA, National Urban League) with local institutions (Johns Hopkins Medicine, United Way of Central Maryland) and repeat support to select education recipients.
A $2,369,450 general-support grant to See Attached anchors Constellation Energy Foundation Inc Cfnd01’s recent giving and signals the size of its strategic commitments. The foundation’s portfolio mixes large institutional awards with local community support and national workforce partners, with grants in education, energy and STEM learning, and Baltimore-area well-being. One thread is education across age groups: Middlebury College received $250,000, and Bryn Mawr School received two $150,000 grants. Another is career and equity-focused workforce support, including $260,000 to Chicago Women in Trades and $200,000 to SkillsUSA. The foundation also backs community-serving organizations in Baltimore, such as Johns Hopkins Medicine, the Peale Center, and United Way of Central Maryland. Its recent grants show a funder that supports both established institutions and nonprofits working on training, access, and local services. The presence of National Energy Education Development and repeated support for select education and community partners points to a grantmaking approach that blends thematic priorities with place-based investment.
Education appears in several forms across the portfolio. The foundation gave $250,000 to Middlebury College for general support and $250,000 to High Mountain Institute for general support, showing institutional support in higher education and school-based learning. In youth energy and STEM education, it awarded $120,000 to National Energy Education Development for the Youth Energy Summit, linking the funder’s energy interests with student programming. Workforce development is another clear lane: Chicago Women in Trades received $260,000 for general support, while SkillsUSA received $200,000 for general support. Community well-being also shows up in Baltimore, where Johns Hopkins Medicine received $200,000 for general support and the Peale Center received $200,000 for general support.
Typical grants cluster at a mid-to-large scale, with p25 at $22,500, a median of $90,000, and p75 at $162,500. The recent record includes both one-time awards and repeated support: Bryn Mawr School appears twice at $150,000 each, and the Peale Center appears with two grants in different amounts. Constellation Energy Foundation Inc Cfnd01 is a regular funder and also makes program-related investments. The grant list suggests a mix of general support and named program support, with youth energy programming explicitly identified in one award.
