The Mark Miminos Charitable Trust & Foundation focuses its giving on local Greater Boston health institutions—particularly neurologic disease research/treatment at Brigham and Women’s—and on supporting Greek Orthodox parish life in the Boston area. Grants are modest in number but meaningful in size, reflecting a mix of health philanthropy (medical research and hospital support) and faith-based community support, with an occasional recreational/health promotion gift (e.g., MS Fitness Challenge).
Concentrated, local giving: a small number of medium-sized grants mostly to repeat grantees, split between a medical research/hospital beneficiary and several Greek Orthodox churches; selective one-off community health donations.
Mark Miminos Charitable Trust & Foundation’s recent giving is shaped by two clear priorities: neurologic disease support at Brigham and Women’s and sustained backing for Greek Orthodox churches in the Boston area. The largest recent grant in the data is a $23,900 gift labeled “Miscellaneous Donations,” and the foundation also made a $20,000 grant to Brigham and Womens Ann Romney Neurologic Diseases. That neurologic focus continues with additional grants to Brigham and Womens Hospital, while religious giving reaches St Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church, St Demetrios Greek Orthodox Church, St Mark Greek Orthodox Church, and other parish recipients. The pattern suggests a donor whose philanthropy is rooted in local institutions and recurring community relationships rather than a broad national portfolio. Smaller grants also support health-related community activity, including Ms Fitness Challenge and National Multiple Sclerosis Society. Across the record, the grants are directed to Massachusetts recipients and are framed in charitable-purpose language, often with “to comply with charitable purpose” as the stated purpose.
Health-related giving centers on neurologic care and research. In 2024, the foundation gave $20,000 to Brigham and Womens Ann Romney Neurologic Diseases for charitable purpose, and it also granted $10,000 to Brigham and Womens Hospital in 2023. A separate health and fitness line appears in the $6,000 grant to Ms Fitness Challenge in 2023 and the $2,000 grant to National Multiple Sclerosis Society in 2025. Greek Orthodox parish support is another consistent theme. Recent gifts include $9,300 and $7,400 to St Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church in 2024, plus $6,435 to St Demetrios Greek Orthodox Church in 2024 and $6,000 to Dormition of Virgin Marg Church in 2025. The foundation also supported St Mark Greek Orthodox Church, St Catherines Greek Orthodox Church, and St Irene’s Philoptochos Society.
Typical grants are small: p25 is $200, median is $500, and p75 is $1,175. The recent record shows repeated support to the same recipients across 2023, 2024, and 2025, including hospitals and Greek Orthodox churches, which points to recurring relationships rather than one-off gifts. The foundation is a charitable trust/foundation rather than a program-related-investment vehicle, and it does not fund individuals. Many grants are described as being made “to comply with charitable purpose,” indicating a compliance-oriented grantmaking style with largely undesignated support.

Grantmaking is entirely local in the provided data: 100% of grants go to recipients in Massachusetts, and Massachusetts is the top state by grant count. Recipient locations in the recent grants list are centered in Burlington, with repeated gifts to local institutions there. Named recipients include Brigham and Womens Hospital, St Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church, and St Demetrios Greek Orthodox Church, all shown with Burlington addresses in the grant record. No non-U.S. recipient country appears in the dataset.
The recent record shows two main clusters: neurologic disease and hospital support through Brigham and Womens-related grants, and Greek Orthodox parish support through churches such as St Nicholas, St Demetrios, St Mark, and St Catherines. It also makes smaller health-related community grants like Ms Fitness Challenge and National Multiple Sclerosis Society.
The distribution is modest: the 25th percentile is $200, the median is $500, and the 75th percentile is $1,175. Even so, the recent list includes several larger gifts, such as $23,900 and $20,000, alongside many grants in the low-thousands.
No. Several recipients appear in multiple years, including Brigham and Womens Ann Romney Neurologic Diseases, Brigham and Womens Hospital, St Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church, St Demetrios Greek Orthodox Church, St Irene’s Philoptochos Society, and St Catherines Greek Orthodox Church. That pattern suggests recurring support.
The grant record is entirely Massachusetts-based: 100% of grants go to recipients in MA, and MA is the top state by grant count. The recent list is centered on Burlington recipients, including Brigham and Womens Hospital and multiple Greek Orthodox parishes.
