About Ocean Reef Community Foundation

A defining feature of Ocean Reef Community Foundation Inc is how much of its recent funding stays within the Ocean Reef network itself: large grants have gone to Ocean Reef Cultural Center, Ocean Reef Medical Center Foundation, The Academy at Ocean Reef, and Ocean Reef Conservation Association. The pattern points to a community foundation supporting institutions that shape daily life in Key Largo and nearby communities through education, health services, culture, and conservation. The foundation’s recent grants also show a mix of very large awards and steady support across several years. In 2025, it gave $1,957,959 to Ocean Reef Cultural Center and $1,874,658 to Ocean Reef Medical Center Foundation. Earlier grants include $1,602,066 to Ocean Reef Medical Center Foundation in 2023 and $1,540,316 in 2024, along with multiple awards to The Academy at Ocean Reef in the $600,000 to $900,000 range. Outside the Ocean Reef cluster, the foundation also funded Veritas Classical Christian School in Richmond, Virginia, and Banner Christian School in Chesterfield, Virginia, showing that its reach extends beyond Florida while remaining regionally oriented.

How Ocean Reef Community Foundation Gives

Typical grant size sits at $10,000 at the 25th percentile, $25,000 at the median, and $60,000 at the 75th percentile, even though the recent-grants list also includes several seven-figure awards. The foundation appears to make repeat grants to the same recipients across multiple years, including Ocean Reef Medical Center Foundation, Ocean Reef Cultural Center, The Academy at Ocean Reef, and Ocean Reef Conservation Association. It makes program-related investments and does not fund individuals. The pattern suggests a community foundation structure with both direct grant support and broader capital deployment.
