About Seco Energy Foundation

Seco Energy Foundation Inc’s recent funding shows a strong emphasis on veteran support, with two $50,000 grants in 2025: one to United Way of Lake and Sumter Counties for veterans and another to Habitat for Humanity Lakesumter for veterans’ housing. That same year, the foundation also backed education, emergency readiness, and basic-needs projects through grants for a charter school facility repair, a 2-1-1 program, a police department community-information effort, and a generator for a Boy Scouts unit. The foundation’s portfolio is built around local nonprofit projects that improve quality of life in the communities served by SECO Energy. Its support extends across community development, education, veterans services, emergency preparedness, environmental conservation, public safety, and basic needs. Recent awards also include housing stability, adaptive transportation, food assistance, teen robotics, and support for seniors and first responders. Grant sizes in the recent list range from $5,000 to $50,000, with several larger awards clustered at the top of the range. The mix suggests a funder that uses both targeted, higher-dollar gifts and smaller project support to meet specific community needs.
