About Batchelor Foundation
The Batchelor Foundation concentrates almost all of its giving on the University of Miami medical enterprise, providing large gifts for general operations, endowment, capital improvement, and cancer center support. Its philanthropy is institutionally focused and health/biomedical in orientation, favoring major investments in a single university partner rather than broad community grantmaking. The foundation appears to prioritize sustaining medical research, clinical capacity, and facility development through sizable, multi-grant commitments.

About Batchelor Foundation
The Batchelor Foundation Inc’s most distinctive pattern is its repeated support for the University of Miami medical enterprise, including a $4,900,000 grant in 2025 to the University of Miami Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center for general operations and capital improvement. The foundation also made a $2,725,000 grant in 2024 and a $2,575,000 grant in 2025 to the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine for general operations and endowment support, showing a steady emphasis on medical research, clinical capacity, and long-term institutional stability. Beyond the university, its giving includes major support for health, environmental, and social-service organizations across South Florida. Examples from recent grants include $1,400,000 to The Everglades Foundation Inc in both 2024 and 2025 for general operations and endowment, and $1,007,500 to Jackson Health Foundation Inc for general operations and capital improvement.

How Batchelor Foundation Gives
Typical grant sizes cluster at a relatively consistent level: the 25th percentile is $19,000, the median is $25,000, and the 75th percentile is $50,000. That distribution sits alongside a small number of much larger institutional awards. The foundation operates as a regular funder rather than a donor-advised fund, and it does not fund individuals or make program-related investments. Recipients often appear across multiple years, including repeated support for the same organizations in 2024 and 2025, which suggests ongoing relationships rather than one-off gifts. The pattern also shows a mix of general operations, endowment, and capital improvement support.
