The Cordasco Family Foundation concentrates its giving in a very narrow set of recipients, primarily providing large, unrestricted gifts to other grantmaking institutions and targeted support for youth development organizations. With only two grants reported, the foundation shows a tendency to fund established intermediaries and direct service organizations that serve children and adolescents.
Highly concentrated: very few grants with one dominant large award to another foundation and a smaller, targeted grant to a youth services organization; appears to favor sizable, one‑off gifts rather than many small awards.
Cordasco Family Foundation Inc gives in a highly concentrated way, with just a small set of reported grants and a clear pattern of large awards to a few institutions. The single largest recent grant was $200,000 to The Cooper Foundation in Camden, New Jersey, a gift that stands out alongside a $40,500 award to Boys & Girls Club of Philadelphia. That mix points to a foundation that supports both grantmaking intermediaries and direct-service youth organizations rather than spreading funds broadly across many categories. The foundation’s recent activity also shows an interest in organizations tied to Philadelphia and nearby communities. Temple University and Guardians of the National Cemetery each received $25,000 in 2023, while later gifts included support for The Immokalee Foundation, Tim Tebow Foundation, Habitat for Humanity, and Maronite Order Blessed Virgin Mary. The pattern suggests a funder that favors selective, often substantial charitable grants, with some smaller awards appearing alongside its larger commitments. Across the record on file, the foundation’s giving is narrow, deliberate, and centered on a handful of named recipients.
One clear theme is support for grantmaking organizations and philanthropic intermediaries. In 2023, Cordasco Family Foundation Inc gave $200,000 to The Cooper Foundation in Camden, New Jersey, a much larger award than most others in the record. Youth development is another consistent area. In 2025, the foundation awarded $40,500 to Boys & Girls Club of Philadelphia for charitable purposes, linking the foundation to after-school and urban youth services. The grant list also includes higher-education and community-oriented giving. Temple University received $25,000 in Philadelphia, and Guardians of the National Cemetery in Newtown, Pennsylvania, also received $25,000. Smaller 2025 gifts went to The Immokalee Foundation, Tim Tebow Foundation, and Habitat for Humanity, showing additional interest in education, youth, and community support.
The reported grant sizes cluster at the top end: the 25th percentile is $25,000, the median is $25,000, and the 75th percentile is $112,500. That indicates a small number of relatively large awards, with a long tail down to much smaller gifts. The foundation’s giving appears highly concentrated rather than recurring across many recipients. The record on file shows two grants in 2023 and a separate set in 2025, with one recipient, St John Neumann, appearing twice in 2025 at different amounts. Cordasco Family Foundation Inc is a private family foundation; it does not fund individuals and does not make program-related investments.

Notable grantees: The Cooper Foundation, Boys & Girls Club of Philadelphia
Grant recipients are all in the United States, and the strongest concentration is in Pennsylvania. Philadelphia appears more than once, with grants to Boys & Girls Club of Philadelphia, Temple University, and Zeta Tau Alpha Foundation. New Jersey shows up through Camden and Newtown, while Florida recipients include Naples, Jacksonville, and Clearwater. The foundation gives most often in Pennsylvania, not in its Florida headquarters state.
Its grants go to grantmaking organizations and direct-service nonprofits, especially youth-focused groups. The recent record includes support for The Cooper Foundation in Camden, Boys & Girls Club of Philadelphia, and The Immokalee Foundation, plus community-oriented recipients such as Habitat for Humanity and Guardians of the National Cemetery.
The distribution is heavily weighted toward larger awards. The 25th percentile and median are both $25,000, while the 75th percentile is $112,500. That puts most reported grants at or above $25,000, with a few much larger awards shaping the upper end.
Pennsylvania is the top state by grant count. Philadelphia appears multiple times in the recent grants list, and Newtown is also represented. New Jersey and Florida also receive grants, but Pennsylvania is the clearest concentration in the record.
The record shows a highly concentrated pattern with only a small number of recipients. One organization, St John Neumann, appears twice in 2025 at $10,350 and $400, while most other recipients appear once. That points to mostly one-off awards with limited repeat giving.
