The Greene Family Foundation predominantly funds Chabad Jewish organizations, providing unrestricted mission support to both campus and community Chabad centers. Their giving is mission-focused on Jewish religious life and outreach rather than secular service delivery, and recipients include regional congregational centers and a university Chabad house.
Concentrated support to a small number of related grantees in the Chabad movement, with one large gift and several mid-sized grants in a single year; grants appear to be general mission support rather than project-specific.
Greene Family Foundation Inc centers its giving on Chabad Jewish organizations, with mission support flowing to campus and community centers rather than secular service providers. The largest recent grant in the record was $100,000 to the Roitman Chabad Center at Cornell University for the nonprofit organization’s mission, a signal of how strongly the foundation can support Jewish student life at a single institution. Other large gifts point to the same pattern in local communities: $35,000 went to First Coast Chabad in Jacksonville, and $30,000 supported Chabad of Amelia Island and Nassau County Inc. The foundation also backed Chabad of Bloomington Mn, Chabad of Jacksonville, and Chabad of Towson University, showing activity across university-based, city-based, and regional Chabad institutions. Its giving is not limited to one place or one operating model; the recipients include a mix of campus centers, congregational outreach organizations, and affiliated nonprofits carrying out mission-driven religious programming. Across the recent grants list, the common thread is unrestricted support for Chabad-aligned work.
The foundation’s clearest focus area is campus Chabad centers. It gave $100,000 to the Roitman Chabad Center at Cornell University for the nonprofit organization’s mission, and later supported Chabad of Towson University with $1,800 for the same purpose. A second theme is community Chabad outreach. Recent gifts include $35,000 to First Coast Chabad and $30,000 to Chabad of Amelia Island and Nassau County Inc, both framed as mission support. Greene Family Foundation Inc also supports Chabad programming in smaller markets, such as $20,000 to Chabad of Bloomington Mn and $3,600 to the same organization in a later grant. Beyond Chabad-specific work, the list includes Jewish community organizations such as Jacksonville Jewish Center and Jewish Family & Community Services, both in Jacksonville, which shows some broader support within Jewish communal life.
Typical grant size is modest to mid-sized, with a p25 of $1,800, a median of $5,000, and a p75 of $8,750. The record also includes occasional larger outliers, but most awards cluster around operating-scale gifts rather than large institutional commitments. Repeated recipients appear in the data: Emet received $5,000 in both 2023 and 2024, Chabad of Jacksonville appears in 2023 and 2025, and Chabad of Bloomington Mn received grants in two different years as well. The foundation is a private family foundation and, based on the grant descriptions, gives unrestricted mission support rather than project-restricted awards. It also makes program-related investments.
