This foundation is primarily focused on funding Florida-based domestic violence shelters, victim service agencies, and county-level domestic violence coalitions, providing unrestricted/operational support rather than project-specific funding. Grants are directed to shelter operators, advocacy programs and crisis service providers across both urban and rural counties, indicating a statewide commitment to keeping shelter beds and core services funded. The foundation appears to prioritize organizations that provide direct crisis intervention, safe housing, and continuum-of-care support for survivors of domestic abuse.
Florida Coalition Against Domestic Violence Inc directs substantial support to Florida domestic violence shelters and victim-service organizations, with the largest recent grant going to Women in Distress of Broward Co for $529,641. The pattern in the latest grants points to core support for shelter operations and related services rather than short-term project awards. Across the recent grant list, recipients include organizations operating in both larger metro areas and smaller counties, such as YWCA (harmony House) of Pbc in West Palm Beach and Seminole Co Victims Rights Coalition in Lake Monroe. The foundation’s giving is shaped around domestic abuse response infrastructure: shelter capacity, advocacy, crisis intervention, and ongoing survivor support. Several awards also go to named shelters and coalitions that serve as local access points for people escaping domestic violence. The recurring language in the grant purposes emphasizes general function support for domestic abuse shelters and related entities, suggesting a funding model that helps keep service systems staffed and operating. The foundation’s 2023 grant activity shows a statewide network of providers rather than a single program site, with multiple grantees distributed across Florida communities.
Domestic abuse shelters are the clearest theme in the recent grants. Florida Coalition Against Domestic Violence Inc gave $361,008 to YWCA (harmony House) of Pbc in West Palm Beach and $286,302 to Shelter for Abused Women in Naples, both for general function support of domestic abuse shelters and related entities. Victims’ rights and coalition work also appears in the portfolio: Seminole Co Victims Rights Coalition received $358,094, again for general operating support tied to domestic abuse services. The foundation also backs crisis and advocacy providers, including $251,755 to Miami Dade Advocates for Victims in Miami and $224,335 to Shelter House in Ft Walton Beach. Child- and family-related domestic violence services are part of the picture as well, reflected in awards to organizations such as Casa 138 in St Petersburg and Safeplace & Rape Crisis Center in Sarasota.
Typical grants sit at a median of $131,266, with the middle half running from $61,137 at the 25th percentile to $277,665 at the 75th percentile. The recent grant list is heavily weighted toward operating support, and several recipients appear as ongoing domestic violence shelters, coalitions, or advocacy groups rather than one-off project sites. The foundation is a public charity and a regular funder, not a DAF. Its 2023 grants are all to US recipients, and the pattern in the recent list suggests repeated support for the same type of service infrastructure across Florida.
