The Harvey Family Foundation % Mark Harvey gives very targeted, high-dollar support to disease-focused national health charities. Their single recorded grant is a large, unrestricted gift to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, indicating a priority on funding medical research, patient services, and advocacy for specific health conditions rather than a broad portfolio of causes.
Highly concentrated: a single large, unrestricted grant to one national health organization rather than many small or diversified gifts.
Harvey Family Foundation % Mark Harvey centers its giving on cystic fibrosis and strategic biomedical research, with its largest recorded grant going to Cystic Fibrosis Foundation for general use at $433,809. The pattern is not broad-based philanthropy; it is a targeted mix of disease-specific support, scientific collaborations, and a smaller set of community grants in Oklahoma and beyond. Alongside its core CF funding, the foundation has also backed research institutions through multi-year partnership grants, including Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Boston Children’s Hospital Fund. That combination points to a funder that uses direct gifts and co-funding to support translational science, while also making selective operating gifts to nonprofits working in local communities. Recent grants include support for 8th Street Urban Farm, Peppers Ranch, and One Veteran One Dog Two Lives Saved, showing that the foundation’s portfolio extends beyond health research, but remains relatively concentrated. The recent record also shows unrestricted or general-use support appearing frequently, suggesting flexibility in how individual gifts are deployed.
Cystic fibrosis is the clearest throughline in the foundation’s giving. It made a $433,809 general-use grant to Cystic Fibrosis Foundation and a $13,655 general-use grant to the same organization in a later year, showing repeated support for a disease-specific charity. The research side of that strategy appears in a $35,000 Edgerton Centers Directors Fund grant to Massachusetts Institute of Technology and a $30,000 grant to Boston Children’s Hospital Fund for “Dr Uller and the Adult CF Porgram,” both tied to medical science rather than broad health programming. Outside cystic fibrosis, the foundation also supports local community organizations: it gave $50,000 to 8th Street Urban Farm for general use and $15,000 to Peppers Ranch for general use. Smaller gifts to Heritage Hall School and Nichols Hills Parks Inc reinforce that the portfolio includes education and community-serving institutions as well.
Grant sizes range from a $1,000 floor to a $433,809 high, with a p25 of $2,000, a median of $2,868, and a p75 of $25,000. That spread shows a two-track pattern: a few very large strategic gifts and a longer tail of modest local grants. The recent list also suggests repeat support, most clearly in multiple grants to Cystic Fibrosis Foundation and Massachusetts Institute of Technology across different years. The foundation is a private family foundation tied to Mark Harvey, and it does not fund individuals or make program-related investments.

Notable grantees: Cystic Fibrosis Foundation
All recorded recent grants went to U.S. recipients. Maryland leads by recipient count, driven by repeated grants to Bethesda-based Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. Oklahoma is also prominent, with grants to Oklahoma City, Guthrie, Bethany, Nichols Hills, and Edmond. Massachusetts appears through Cambridge and Boston awards tied to research and hospital support. The foundation’s giving is therefore national in reach, but with a strong Oklahoma cluster and a repeated East Coast health-research presence.
The foundation’s clearest focus is cystic fibrosis research and patient support. It also backs national disease-specific health charities, scientific research and translational medicine, and selective general-use support for Oklahoma community organizations and institutions.
The distribution is relatively small for the middle of the portfolio: p25 is $2,000, median is $2,868, and p75 is $25,000. The recent list also includes a much larger outlier at $433,809.
Yes. The recent grants list shows repeated support to Cystic Fibrosis Foundation in different years and multiple awards to Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 2024 and 2025, indicating ongoing relationships rather than one-off gifts only.
By recipient count, Maryland leads, largely because of Bethesda-based Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. Oklahoma recipients are also numerous, including Oklahoma City, Guthrie, Bethany, Nichols Hills, and Edmond.
No. The foundation is marked as not funding individuals, and the available grant programs emphasize strategic partnerships, co-funding, and organizational grants rather than individual awards.
