JHC Foundation Inc. concentrates its giving on local Indianapolis-area youth-serving organizations, with an emphasis on community sports programs and Christian faith-based ministries and schools. Grants are typically unrestricted/general support and are awarded repeatedly to a small set of recurring grantees, suggesting long-term relationships with organizations that combine athletics, youth leadership, and religious programming.
Concentrated, relationship-driven giving: moderate number of modest-to-mid-sized grants focused on a handful of repeat local grantees, primarily providing general operating support rather than project-specific funding.
Jhc Foundation Inc. gives repeated support to a small group of youth-focused organizations, with the largest recent checks going to World Sports Inc. and Sports Catalyst. The pattern points to a funder that favors ongoing relationships rather than one-time awards: World Sports Inc. received multiple grants in 2025 and 2024, while Sports Catalyst appears in 2025, 2024, and 2023. The grants are generally unrestricted or framed as expenses or general expenses, which suggests flexible operating support rather than project-only funding. The foundation’s recent giving also reaches Christian education and church-based youth programming. Coram Deo Academy received grants in both 2024 and 2025, and Community Bible Fellowship appears across three years, including grants labeled general expenses and expenses. Lead to Serve Inc. is another recurring recipient, alongside other organizations tied to youth development, service, sports, and faith-based community work. Across the recent grant list, the foundation’s support is centered on organizations that combine athletics, leadership development, and Christian programming for young people.
Community sports is a clear thread in Jhc Foundation Inc.’s giving. Sports Catalyst received $20,600 in 2024 and $19,000 plus $16,800 in 2025, all described as general expenses or expenses. World Sports Inc. also received $24,400 and $22,200 in 2025, with another $6,400 and $5,400 in earlier grants. Faith-based youth support is another consistent area. Community Bible Fellowship received $6,000 in 2024, $6,000 and $5,500 in 2025, and $1,500 in 2023. Christian education shows up through Coram Deo Academy, which received $5,000 in both 2024 and 2025. The foundation also supports youth leadership and service development: Lead to Serve Inc. received $6,800 in 2023, $5,800 in 2024, and two $4,800 grants in 2025.
Typical awards are in a narrow band: the 25th percentile is $5,100, the median is $5,900, and the 75th percentile is $6,700. That distribution sits well below the foundation’s largest recent grants, which are much higher than the median. The pattern is not one-off; several recipients appear across multiple years, including World Sports Inc., Sports Catalyst, Community Bible Fellowship, Coram Deo Academy, and Lead to Serve Inc. Grants are commonly labeled general expenses or expenses, indicating flexible operating support. The foundation is structured as a nonprofit foundation and does not fund individuals or make program-related investments.
