The JAS Family Foundation concentrates its giving on direct-service programs that create economic opportunity for disadvantaged individuals, particularly through scholarships for low-income students and workforce re-entry for people with criminal records. Their grants are large and focused, with multi-grant support to a small number of organizations that deliver measurable education and employment outcomes.
Jas Family Foundation gives around two recurring themes: scholarships for underprivileged students and workforce development for recently incarcerated individuals. The two largest recent grants, both at $250,000, went in 2023 and again in 2025 to Littleton Academy and the Ctr for Employment Opport, showing a repeated commitment to those two program lines rather than one-off support. The foundation also appears to back organizations that deliver direct services tied to health, housing, and family stability, including transitional housing for pregnant women and newborns, pediatric and critical-care health, and housing for families affected by war or terrorism. Several grants are unrestricted or general operating support, while others are explicitly tied to scholarships, job creation, or service delivery. Its recent portfolio includes both local and national organizations, with funding concentrated in a relatively small set of repeat recipients. The pattern suggests a funder that prefers targeted grants to organizations serving specific populations with education and employment needs, alongside selected charitable and health-focused interventions.
In education, Jas Family Foundation supported underprivileged students with a $250,000 grant to Littleton Academy in 2025 for scholarships, and also gave $50,000 to Evans Scholars Foundation for scholarships, career mentoring, and caddie training. In workforce development, it made a $250,000 grant to Ctr for Employment Opport in 2025 for job creation and workforce development for recently incarcerated individuals. The foundation also backs direct-service education models, including $50,000 to Students 2 Science Inc for general operating expenditures and $25,000 to Macro Minds Fdn for educational support to under resourced children and youth in the New York area. Beyond education and employment, the portfolio includes health and family-support work, such as $25,000 to Mary's Home for transitional residential and nonresidential services to pregnant women and their newborns.
Typical grants cluster around $10,000 at the median, with a lower quartile of $5,000 and an upper quartile of $25,000. The recent record shows repeated support to the same organizations across 2023 and 2025, including multiple grants to the same scholarship and workforce grantees, which points to an ongoing rather than one-time relationship style. Jas Family Foundation is a regular funder, not a donor-advised fund, and it also funds individuals. The grant list includes a mix of general operating support, project-specific awards, scholarships, and direct-service funding, with some larger awards at $50,000 and $250,000 anchoring the portfolio.

Highly concentrated — very large gifts split between two repeat grantees (two $500,000 awards each), indicating a preference for substantial, possibly multi-year support to a small number of mission-aligned organizations rather than many small grants.
Notable grantees: Littleton Academy, Center for Employment Opportunities (CEO)
Grant recipients are entirely in the US, with New York the top state by grant count. The recent grants include multiple recipients in New York City, Bronxville, Rye, Staten Island, and New York, NY, alongside repeated awards in New Jersey towns such as Holmdel, Gladstone, East Hanover, Summit, and Mount Tabor. Florida recipients also appear, including Jupiter and Stuart, but they make up 15% of grants, below New York's share. The geographic pattern looks national rather than regional, with a concentration in a few states and several repeat recipient cities.
The foundation gives most often to scholarship programs, workforce development for recently incarcerated individuals, and direct-service education and employment programs. Recent grants also show support for health care, transitional housing for pregnant women and newborns, and housing tied to families affected by war or terrorism.
Yes. The recent grant list shows repeated awards in both 2023 and 2025 to Littleton Academy and Ctr for Employment Opport, and repeat support also appears for several other organizations such as Students 2 Science Inc, Telluride Foundation, and Mary's Home.
The foundation's grant-size distribution centers on $10,000 at the median, with a $5,000 p25 and $25,000 p75. Recent grants also include larger awards of $50,000 and $250,000 to selected repeat recipients.
New York is the top state by grant count, while 15% of grants go to recipients in Florida, the foundation's headquarters state. The recipient list also includes multiple organizations in New Jersey, North Carolina, and other US states.
Recent grants include support for Jupiter Medical Ctr for clinical excellence and quality healthcare, Mary's Home for transitional residential and nonresidential services for pregnant women and newborns, and Tunnel to Towers for houses for families who lost loved ones in war and terrorism and for handicapped-access houses for disabled veterans and first responders.
