Oak Grove School gives largely to K–12 schools and local educational projects in central Maine, funding hands-on classroom needs (arts, music, STEAM), extracurricular residencies, facility improvements, and community cultural preservation. Grants are typically modest and project-specific — equipment, supplies, field programs, and restoration — and the foundation shows a clear preference for repeat support to familiar regional schools and Quaker-affiliated institutions. Their giving also touches community-facing organizations like food security programs, outdoor education centers, and historical societies.
