The Haag Family Foundation concentrates its giving on major children’s health institutions, providing large, general-purpose grants to regional pediatric hospitals and rehabilitation centers. Its support appears targeted and substantial rather than broad-based, favoring established healthcare organizations that deliver pediatric care and therapy services. The foundation makes repeat, unrestricted gifts to a small number of institutional grantees rather than many small awards.
Concentrated giving: a small number of large grants (several six-figure gifts) focused on a few institutional health grantees, with repeated support to the same organizations and emphasis on general purpose/unrestricted funding.
Texas Children’s Hospital, Children’s Minnesota Foundation, Courage Kenny Foundation
The Haag Family Foundation’s largest recent gifts point to a narrow, institution-focused pattern of support for children’s health and rehabilitation. In the latest grant list, Texas Children’s Hospital received $275,000 in 2024 and $200,000 in 2025, while Children’s Minnesota Foundation received $200,000 in 2023, $100,000 in 2024, and $150,000 in 2025. Those repeat awards show a preference for sustained support rather than one-time funding. The foundation also backs organizations tied to pediatric therapy and disability services, including Courage Kenny Foundation, which appears multiple times in the recent record. General-purpose language is common across the grants, suggesting the foundation often gives unrestricted institutional support instead of project-restricted awards. Its giving is not spread evenly across many sectors. The recent record centers on major pediatric hospitals, children’s healthcare institutions, and rehabilitation-focused nonprofits, with additional grants extending to education and community organizations in the same broad family and youth-serving space. The pattern is one of sizeable checks to a relatively small set of established organizations, especially those serving children and families.
Children’s healthcare is the clearest theme in the Haag Family Foundation’s recent grants. Texas Children’s Hospital received $275,000 in 2024 and $200,000 in 2025 for general purpose support, and Memorial Hermann Foundation received $85,000 in 2025 and $75,000 in 2024, also for general purpose support. The foundation also supports pediatric and family-serving institutions in Minnesota. Children’s Minnesota Foundation received $200,000 in 2023, $100,000 in 2024, and $150,000 in 2025, all listed as general purpose grants. Urban Ventures received $100,000 in 2024 and $75,000 in both 2023 and 2025. A third thread is rehabilitation and disability-related support. Courage Kenny Foundation appears with $200,000 in 2023, $50,000 in 2024, and $50,000 in 2025. The recent record also includes Huntington’s Disease in New York, funded at $100,000 in 2023, 2024, and 2025.
Typical grants cluster around a $5,000 p25, $10,000 median, and $30,000 p75, but the recent record also includes much larger institutional awards, including six-figure gifts. The pattern is repeat support: several grantees appear across multiple years, often with general-purpose language. The foundation is a family foundation and does not fund individuals. It also does not make program-related investments. No application process is described in the provided data.

Grantmaking is national, with all recent grants going to U.S. recipients. Minnesota is the top state by grant count, and several recent recipients are located in Minneapolis and Edina, including organizations in both cities. Illinois also appears frequently through Chicago-based grantees, while Texas shows up through Houston. The recipient-country distribution is entirely domestic, with 158 grants to U.S. organizations.
The recent record centers on major pediatric hospitals, children’s healthcare institutions, and pediatric rehabilitation or therapy organizations. It also includes some education and youth-serving nonprofits, but the clearest pattern is general-purpose support for established institutions serving children and families.
Yes. Several recipients appear in multiple years. Children’s Minnesota Foundation received grants in 2023, 2024, and 2025; Memorial Hermann Foundation appears in 2023, 2024, and 2025; and one New York-based grantee received $100,000 in each of those same three years.
The foundation’s grant-size distribution is centered at $5,000 for the 25th percentile, $10,000 at the median, and $30,000 for the 75th percentile. The recent grant list also shows substantially larger awards to a small number of institutions.
Minnesota is the top state by grant count. Recent recipients there include organizations in Minneapolis and Edina, which aligns with the foundation’s strongest geographic concentration in the grant record.
The recent grants are repeatedly labeled “general purpose,” indicating broad support rather than project-only funding. That language appears across hospital, rehabilitation, education, and community grants in the recent record.
