About Hp Foundation
The HP Foundation concentrates much of its giving on philanthropy infrastructure and platforms that expand charitable giving, while also supporting civic/public-space projects, leadership/policy organizations, and selective international education and conservation efforts. Its grants are few but large, often paid to intermediary organizations that enable or amplify other nonprofits rather than directly funding front-line service delivery. Recipients are frequently repeat grantees and national or international organizations with broad reach.

About Hp Foundation
Hp Foundation’s largest recent grants flow through intermediary organizations that extend charitable giving at scale, including American Online Giving Foundation and Charities Aid Foundation of America. That pattern sits at the center of the foundation’s grantmaking: it backs philanthropy infrastructure, donor-advised and grantmaking facilitation, and select public-interest institutions that can move resources broadly. The recent record also shows recurring support for organizations with national reach and repeated awards over multiple years, rather than one-off program grants. Alongside the giving platforms, the foundation has funded civic and educational work through groups such as Trust for the National Mall, Aspen Institute, Girl Rising, and Junior Achievement Worldwide. These grants point to a portfolio that mixes infrastructure for philanthropy with policy, civic-space, youth, and education initiatives. The foundation’s disclosed grants are substantial, with several awards in the seven-figure range and many repeated commitments across 2023, 2024, and 2025. Its recent pattern suggests a preference for established organizations that can channel funds through networks, convenings, or programs with broad public reach.

The foundation also funded related charitable infrastructure through Global Impact, including $450,000 in 2024 and $272,500 in 2025.

In education and youth development, the foundation supported Girl Rising with $1,023,000 in 2025 and $1,000,000 in 2024, while Junior Achievement Worldwide received multiple awards across 2023 to 2025.
How Hp Foundation Gives
Hp Foundation’s typical grant size is $69,986 at the 25th percentile, $150,000 at the median, and $550,000 at the 75th percentile, even though its largest awards are much higher. The recent record shows repeated support for the same organizations over multiple years, especially for American Online Giving Foundation, Charities Aid Foundation of America, American Red Cross, Junior Achievement Worldwide, and UNICEF USA. That repeat pattern suggests ongoing relationships rather than isolated project grants. The foundation is a regular funder, not a DAF, and it does not fund individuals or make program-related investments.
