About Louis L Borick Foundation
The Louis L. Borick Foundation gives very narrowly and substantially, directing all observed grants to a single recipient focused on golf-related charitable activity. Their support appears to prioritize sports-based youth development or access to golf (delivered through the I AM a Golfer Foundation), suggesting a hands-on interest in a specific program or partner rather than broad philanthropic diversification. The foundation’s giving is concentrated and relationship-driven rather than spread across many causes.

About Louis L Borick Foundation
The Louis L Borick Foundation’s largest recent grant went to I AM a Golfer Foundation in Dallas, with a $325,000 gift in 2024 after a $300,000 grant in 2023. That repeated support is a useful signal: this funder has a clear preference for sustained backing of a small number of organizations rather than broad, dispersed grantmaking. The foundation’s recent portfolio also includes sizable awards to youth-serving, community, and education organizations in Montana, California, and New York, but the pattern remains highly concentrated. Within that concentration, the foundation appears to support both direct-service nonprofits and organizations tied to broader community access. Youth Homes Inc in Missoula received $250,000 in 2024 and $200,000 in 2023, while Diffadallas in Dallas received $232,000 in 2024 and $200,000 in 2023. Other repeated grants to the same recipients across years include Watson's Children's Shelter, PEF Israel Endowment Fund Inc, Bay Ed Fund, Clark Fork Coalition, Tipping Point Community, Teach for America - Bay Area, Point Foundation, and Wild Montana. The grant list shows a pattern of returning to established partners over multiple years.
What Louis L Borick Foundation Funds
Sports-based youth development is the clearest thread in the foundation’s giving. In 2024, it gave $325,000 to I AM a Golfer Foundation in Dallas for charitable donation, building on a $300,000 grant the year before. Youth and family support is another recurring area. Youth Homes Inc in Missoula received $250,000 in 2024 and $200,000 in 2023, while Watson's Children's Shelter in Missoula received $150,000 in 2023 and $100,000 in 2024. The foundation also backs education and early learning work. Center for the Education of Infant Deaf in Berkeley received $100,000 in both 2023 and 2024, and Teach for America - Bay Area was funded at $70,000 in both years. Community and identity-based support appears as well, including $90,000 to Resource Center in Dallas in 2023 and $70,000 to Point Foundation in 2024.
How Louis L Borick Foundation Gives
Typical grants fall in a middle six-figure range for the foundation’s portfolio: the 25th percentile is $20,000, the median is $25,000, and the 75th percentile is $45,000. That sits alongside a handful of much larger awards that drive the headline activity. The giving pattern is relationship-based: several recipients appear in consecutive years, including organizations in Dallas, Missoula, the Bay Area, and New York. The foundation is a regular funder, not a DAF, and it does not fund individuals or make program-related investments. The observed grants are charitable donations, and the active program descriptions show no unsolicited application path.
