The Neuwiesinger Foundation concentrates almost all of its philanthropy on higher-education scholarships in New Jersey, with a particularly large, repeated commitment to Cooper Medical School at Rowan University. Nearly every grant is designated for scholarship or student financial support, typically directed to local colleges, universities and their foundations. The foundation appears focused on supporting health-professions education and widening access to postsecondary study within its regional community.
Concentrated and repeat-focused: a single very large grantee receives the majority of funds (multi-year/repeat grants), with a small number of additional, modest recurring scholarship grants to regional colleges and university foundations.
Neuwiesinger Foundation Corporation centers its giving on scholarship support for New Jersey students, with a particularly large commitment to Cooper Medical School Rowan University in Camden. The largest recent grant on file is $740,000 in 2025 for scholarship support at that medical school, and the same institution also appears in smaller 2025 awards of $14,092 and $13,550. That pattern points to a funder that uses repeated scholarship allocations rather than one-off gifts to sustain students through higher education. The foundation’s recent grants also show support for Rutgers University Foundation in New Brunswick and county-college scholarship programs in Edison and Branchburg. Across the grants listed, the purpose text is consistently scholarship support, indicating a narrow focus on tuition assistance and student financial aid. The grant list includes both undergraduate and graduate support, as well as health-professions training through the medical school channel, which suggests an emphasis on helping students complete postsecondary study within New Jersey. The foundation also gives directly to individual student scholars through restricted awards routed to institutional foundations.
Health-professions education is a clear thread in the foundation’s giving. In 2025, it awarded $740,000 to Cooper Medical School Rowan University in Camden for scholarship support, followed by additional 2025 scholarship grants of $14,092 and $13,550 to the same school. New Jersey public higher education is another recurring area. Rutgers University Foundation in New Brunswick received scholarship grants of $14,092 in 2025, $13,500 in 2025, and $11,000 in 2024. Community-college access also appears in the recent record. Mcc Foundation in Edison received $12,000 scholarships in both 2023 and 2024, while Rvcc Foundation in Branchburg received scholarship awards of $12,000 in 2023, $12,000 in 2024, $11,000 in 2025, and $9,000 in 2025. The pattern is consistent with direct student support tied to postsecondary attendance.
Typical grants cluster tightly around the middle of the distribution: p25 is $12,000, the median is $12,000, and p75 is $13,500. The record also includes an outlier-scale scholarship grant of $740,000 in 2025. The recent grants show repeated support to the same institutions across multiple years, including Rutgers University Foundation, Mcc Foundation, and Rvcc Foundation, which points to an annual scholarship model rather than isolated gifts. The foundation is structured as a grantmaker that also funds individuals, and the listed awards are restricted scholarship grants.
