    About Dr Phillips

    A $9,027,350 grant to See Attached in Orlando is the largest recent award in the Dr Phillips Inc record, and it sits alongside a pattern of large, project-specific support for institutions serving Central Florida. The foundation’s giving is tied to the Phillips family legacy and the idea of helping organizations that “help others help themselves,” with funding directed to capital projects and programs intended to have lasting impact in the region. Recent awards show a strong emphasis on organizations that work with children, students, and families, but the portfolio also includes health, social services, arts programming, and preservation of free enterprise. In 2023 and 2024, University of Central Florida Foundation received multiple multi-million-dollar grants for capital for facility, while Orlando Health Inc received support for capital and program needs. The Central Florida Young Men’s Christian Association and The 4r Foundation Inc also appear as repeated recipients, suggesting ongoing relationships rather than isolated gifts. The foundation’s active programs reinforce this profile. The Dr. P. Phillips Microgrant Program awards fixed $5,000 grants to grassroots nonprofit organizations in Central Florida, while the leadership award recognizes board-selected nonprofits with sustainable, life-changing programs. Dr Phillips Inc also funds competitive general grants for eligible 501(c)(3) organizations serving Central Florida.

    What Dr Phillips Funds

    Education is a core theme in the grant record. Dr Phillips Inc gave $272,500 to the School Board of Orange County Florida for youth education and $260,756 to Junior Achievement of Central Florida Inc for youth education, showing support for both public-school systems and youth financial or career learning programs. Children and youth programming also appears through direct support for service organizations. Boys & Girls Clubs of Central Florida Inc received $521,000 in 2024 for youth development, following a $355,000 grant in 2023 for the same purpose. That repeat funding points to continued backing for programs serving children and adolescents. Arts and social services are also visible in the recent grants list. United Arts of Central Florida Inc received $230,000 in 2024 for arts programming, after a $187,500 grant in 2023. Heart of Florida United Way Inc received $280,000 in 2023 and $122,500 in 2024 for social services, indicating support for broader community services alongside youth-focused work.
