About Pure
Pure Inc’s recent grantmaking is dominated by very large general-support awards to E3 Partners, which received $16,146,405 in 2025, $16,893,707 in 2024, and $14,481,695 in 2023. That pattern sets the tone for the foundation’s work: flexible funding for organizations rather than restricted project grants. Across the recent grants list, the foundation backs nonprofit infrastructure and capacity, alongside organizations connected to child sponsorship, giving circles, fiscal sponsorships, and donor-advised charitable giving funds. Its profile also shows a strong connection to support for nonprofit fundraising technology and training, with the stated aim of helping organizations build capacity and expand impact. The grant record includes repeated multi-year support for Path International, which received $1,630,413 in 2025, $1,456,406 in 2024, and $1,497,079 in 2023, all labeled general support. Other recurring grantees include Help One Now, Mercy House Global, Legacy Collective, Bless the Children Ministries, and Students for International Mission Service, indicating a pattern of continuing relationships rather than one-off gifts. The foundation’s giving is not framed around a single program area; instead, it appears organized around organizational support and fundraising capacity for nonprofits.
What Pure Funds
A central theme in Pure Inc’s grantmaking is general operating support for mission-driven organizations. E3 Partners received repeated large awards for general support across 2023, 2024, and 2025, showing long-running backing rather than a single project grant. Path International also received three consecutive years of general support, with awards above $1.4 million in both 2023 and 2024. The foundation also supports organizations working with children and families. Adopttogether received $928,656 in 2023 for general support, and Bless the Children Ministries received $508,210 in 2025 and $501,871 in 2024, both for general support. Another part of the portfolio goes to international mission-related organizations, including Students for International Mission Service, which received $364,504 in 2025 and $339,842 in 2024, also labeled general support. In addition, Pure Inc backs community-serving nonprofits such as New Beginnings Nwa, which received $581,755 in 2023 for general support.
How Pure Gives
Pure Inc’s typical grant size is $17,658 at the 25th percentile, $47,194 at the median, and $146,605 at the 75th percentile, but its recent portfolio also includes several very large outliers. The pattern is repeat support: multiple grantees appear across 2023, 2024, and 2025, often with the same general-support purpose. The foundation is classified as a Pure DAF Provider, and the available records show unrestricted, general operating, or core-style support rather than program-restricted awards. It does not fund individuals and is not listed as making program-related investments.
