About Raiders Foundation
A $6.95 million transfer of dissolution anchors the Raiders Foundation’s recent record, alongside a second seven-figure grant to Cleveland Clinic Lou Ruvo Center for Brain Health in Las Vegas. The pattern is broad but recognizable: the foundation supports military and veteran services, health and wellness, and youth development, with social justice and equity also appearing in program language and grant descriptions. Recent awards show a mix of one-time support, sponsorships, and restricted donations rather than a single grant style. The foundation’s work reaches local nonprofits, schools, health providers, and community organizations. It backed Uvalde Consolidated Independent School District with $1 million for school security improvements, and gave $250,000 to Biletnikoff Foundation for the Healing Center at St. Jude’s Ranch for Children. Other large awards include contributions to Hawai'i Community Foundation for Maui relief and to Asian Community Development Council for Asian and Pacific Islander community support, food bank, and medical center needs. Across the portfolio, the Raiders Foundation funds direct services, facility or equipment needs, and event-linked support. Youth athletics, mental health and brain health, food security, and community healing all appear in the recent grant record, reflecting a foundation that combines local community investment with targeted responses to specific needs.
What Raiders Foundation Funds
Health and wellness support includes a $1 million grant to Cleveland Clinic Lou Ruvo Center for Brain Health in Las Vegas. The foundation also gave $100,000 to Asian Community Development Council for Asian and Pacific Islander community support, food bank, and medical center needs, showing that health-related giving can extend into community access and basic needs. In youth development, the grants include $50,000 to After-school All-stars Las Vegas and $15,000 to Spring Mountain Youth Camp for weight room donations. A separate $15,000 award to Mater Academy East was also designated for a weight room, while Sparks High School Football Program received $11,000 for the same purpose. Military and veterans support appears in the active grant programs and in event-linked giving such as $25,000 to Hope for Prisoners Inc for a Night of Second Chances sponsorship. Social justice and equity show up in awards to Anti-defamation League and 20 Pearls Foundation, each at $100,000 and $50,000 respectively.
