The Ralph Benaroya Family Foundation focuses on local Seattle-area charitable support, concentrating its modest giving on children's health care, housing for vulnerable populations, Jewish community institutions, and arts programs that serve at-risk adults. Most dollars go to one major health care beneficiary while smaller awards support housing, Jewish community activities, and community arts organizations.
Highly concentrated giving with a single large grant to a flagship beneficiary (Seattle Children's) and several smaller, local grants; mix of repeat small grants (arts) and one-time charity/support gifts to housing and Jewish community organizations.
