The Daniel J and Ann Marie Thompson Foundation makes modest but targeted donations to health, youth and community services, with a strong emphasis on direct-service organizations that serve children, veterans and local medical needs. Grants cluster around nonprofit clinics, child-focused crisis and therapeutic programs, summer camps for sick children, and local schooling/education initiatives. They give repeat support to several grantees, suggesting an interest in sustaining organizations delivering front-line services in their community and region.
The largest recent gifts from Daniel J and Ann Marie Thompson Foundation USA Inc went to Michigan State University and The Smith Medical Clinic, both at $25,000 in 2023. That pairing captures the foundation’s mix of higher-education support and local direct-service funding. Across the recent grants list, the foundation backs health care access, children’s crisis and camp programs, veterans services, and selected schools and faith-linked community organizations. Its giving is modest in scale but regular, with repeat support to several recipients over 2023 and 2024. A clear pattern is support for frontline organizations rather than broad umbrella programs. The Smith Medical Clinic appears again at $15,000 in 2024, and Camp Mak a Dream received $15,000 in both 2023 and 2024. Merrymount Children's Crisis Centre also received two grants, including $8,000 in 2023 and $7,601 in 2024. The foundation’s portfolio suggests an emphasis on sustaining organizations that deliver direct services to patients, children, and veterans. Grants also extend to community anchors such as Mingo Creek Academy, Hospitality House of Charlotte, Precious Blood Church, and Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 10420.
In health access, the foundation gave $25,000 to The Smith Medical Clinic in 2023 and another $15,000 in 2024, pointing to continuing support for local medical care.
