The Sadie Ethel MacDonald Charitable Trust concentrates its giving almost exclusively on improving pediatric medical care, directing all recorded grants to Shriners Hospitals for Children. Grants are labeled as financial support and appear to fund the hospital’s operations or patient services rather than a broad set of causes. The foundation is highly focused and consistent in its beneficiary choice rather than diversified across sectors or geographies.
Highly concentrated giving: few grants all to a single recurring grantee (repeat funding to one organization), moderate aggregate amount across multiple disbursements rather than many small, diversified awards.
