The Odell RS & HP Fund concentrates its giving on Catholic K–12 and faith-based education, primarily supporting tuition-driven parish and private schools and diocesan education offices—many in the San Francisco Bay Area—through repeat, general operating grants. It also funds a few related priorities such as faith-based higher education, Cristo Rey college-prep schools, and youth enrichment programs (notably a long-standing tennis program). Grants are typically unrestricted operating support and frequently made as multiple gifts to the same organizations. The overall portfolio emphasizes sustaining low‑income urban Catholic schools and complementary youth services rather than one-off project funding.
Odell Rs & Hp Fund Tua-main’s giving is defined by sustained support for Catholic K–12 education, especially parish and private schools, diocesan education offices, and related student-support organizations. The pattern is not limited to one or two large awards: the fund repeatedly returns to the same institutions across multiple years, often using general operating grants to help cover ongoing costs. In the recent record, Basic Fund received a $200,000 grant in 2024 and another $150,000 in 2025, while the Diocese of Oakland CA Department of Education received $150,000 in 2025. That recurring emphasis points to a funder focused on keeping tuition-driven school ecosystems functioning. The portfolio also includes faith-based higher education and college-prep models tied to Catholic education. Thomas Aquinas College appears with both scholarship support and general operating support, and Cristo Rey San Jose High School is among the high-school grantees in the recent list. Youth enrichment is present as well, with Youth Tennis Advantage showing up as a continuing beneficiary. Across these grants, the fund favors institutions serving students in urban Catholic school networks rather than one-time project awards.
Catholic education is the clearest cause area in the recent grants. The fund gave $100,000 to Lumen Christi Academies in 2024 for general operating support and another $100,000 in 2023 for the same purpose, showing repeat support for a school network. It also backed Immaculate Conception Academy with $100,000 in 2025 and $100,000 in 2024, both as general operating grants. Faith-based higher education appears in two forms at Thomas Aquinas College: a $100,000 scholarship grant in 2023 and a $100,000 general operating grant in 2025. At the secondary level, Moreau Catholic High School received $100,000 in 2025 for general operating support, while Cristo Rey San Jose High School received $60,000 in 2025 for general operating support and $50,000 in 2024 for general operating support. Youth Tennis Advantage also received $80,000 in 2025 for general operating support.
Typical grants cluster in the $25,000 to $50,000 range, with a median grant size of $30,000 and a p75 of $50,000. The recent record also includes larger repeated awards in the $75,000 to $200,000 range, which are usually directed to core operations or scholarships rather than restricted projects. The pattern is clearly recurring: several recipients appear in more than one year, including Basic Fund, Immaculate Conception Academy, Thomas Aquinas College, Youth Tennis Advantage, and Cristo Rey San Jose High School. Grants are made to organizations and individuals; the available record also shows scholarship support for students through institutions. Program-related investments are not part of this fund’s activity.
