The Fields Galley Private Foundation concentrates its giving on large health and medical institutions, primarily in Florida, funding hospitals and university medical programs. Grants are sizable and directed to institutional general purpose support or to specific (often negotiated) medical projects, indicating a preference for strengthening clinical care, research, and university–health system partnerships rather than grass‑roots or small nonprofit initiatives. The foundation appears to work with a small set of repeat, major grantees rather than a broad portfolio of organizations.
The Fields Galley Private Foundation’s recent giving is anchored by large, negotiated medical grants, including repeated support for the University of Miami and its Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center. Those awards are parked in an account at UOM while the foundation and recipient work out project details, which points to a grantmaking style built around specific institutional partnerships rather than open-ended check-writing. Alongside those university-linked commitments, the foundation has backed major health systems such as Jackson Health Foundation and Cleveland Clinic Florida, usually with general-purpose support. That pattern makes the foundation look less like a broad community funder and more like a private foundation focused on strengthening clinical care, medical research, and hospital infrastructure through a small set of large recipients. The grant list also shows occasional support outside medicine, but those awards remain smaller and far less central than the health-related gifts. Recent examples include continued funding for Cleveland Clinic Florida in Weston and Jackson Health Foundation in Miami, both consistent with the foundation’s preference for institutional partners that can absorb substantial, multi-year support.
Medical institutions account for most of the foundation’s visible giving. The University of Miami appears in multiple recent grants, including funding held for a negotiated project at UOM and a separate award to UOM Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center in Miami. Jackson Health Foundation in Miami also received general-purpose support, reinforcing the foundation’s emphasis on hospital systems and university health partnerships. Beyond South Florida, the foundation has supported Cleveland Clinic Florida in Weston with general-purpose grants across multiple years. It has also made smaller grants to organizations outside core medicine, such as the Florida Aquarium in Tampa for its coral reef nursery and sea turtle rescue facilities, and Big Cat Rescue in Tampa for care of big cats and transfer of animals and facilities tied to an Arkansas reserve.
Typical grant size is modest relative to the largest awards: the p25 is $300, the median is $2,000, and the p75 is $5,000. The distribution shows a mix of small and very large institutional grants, with the upper end far above the median. The recent record also suggests repeat giving rather than one-off awards: Cleveland Clinic Florida, the University of Miami, and UOM Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center each appear in multiple years. The foundation is a private foundation, does not fund individuals, and does not make program-related investments.

Outside Florida, recent recipients include Lyndhurst, VA; Triangle, VA; Lorain, OH; Weston, FL; and Washington, DC, showing a regional footprint that extends beyond the headquarters city.
Its recent grants are concentrated in health and medical institutions, especially hospitals and university medical programs. Examples in the data include Jackson Health Foundation in Miami, Cleveland Clinic Florida in Weston, and the University of Miami and UOM Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center in Miami.
Yes. Cleveland Clinic Florida appears in 2023, 2024, and 2025, and both the University of Miami and UOM Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center received multiple grants across years. That pattern suggests repeated institutional relationships rather than isolated awards.
The grant-size distribution centers on relatively small awards: p25 is $300, median is $2,000, and p75 is $5,000. At the same time, the recent grant list includes much larger institutional grants, so the portfolio spans from small awards to major medical commitments.
Florida is the main recipient state, with 54% of grants going to recipients there. Recent Florida recipients include Miami-based organizations, Weston’s Cleveland Clinic Florida, Tampa’s Florida Aquarium and Big Cat Rescue, and St. Petersburg recipients such as the Florida Orchestra and St Petersburg Free Clinic Inc.
A smaller set of grants goes to environmental, humanitarian, and community organizations. The Florida Aquarium received support for coral reef nursery and sea turtle rescue facilities, Big Cat Rescue received funds for big-cat care and relocation work, and World Central Kitchen received general-purpose grants.
