About Ella O Latham - Irr Tr

A defining feature of Ella O Latham - Irr Tr is its repeated support for medical research at MedStar Health Research Institute, with three grants across 2023, 2024, and 2025 totaling well over $100,000. That pattern sits alongside a steady stream of operating support for Washington-area health and human service organizations, including Howard University and La Clinica Del Pueblo. The foundation’s recent giving shows a preference for general operating support rather than restricted project awards, and its largest recent grants land in the Washington, DC metropolitan area. It also connects health funding with safety-net services: grants reach organizations serving people facing illness, hunger, homelessness, and housing instability. The mix of grantees suggests a funder that supports both research and direct services, with relationships that extend over multiple years rather than isolated gifts. Alongside research and clinical care, the foundation has backed higher education through Howard University, which appears more than once in the recent grants list. The overall profile is compact and relationship-based, with grant amounts often clustered in the mid-thousands to low five figures.
