The Gaby Family Foundation concentrates its support on evangelical Christian institutions, funding both a local megachurch and national Christian philanthropy intermediaries, with additional giving to faith‑aligned international human rights work and conservative youth programming. Grants are few but large, often repeated to the same organizations, indicating a focused, relationship‑driven approach that blends local church support with national and global faith‑based initiatives.
A defining pattern at The Gaby Family Foundation is the repeated support for Perimeter Church, which received $1,286,400 in 2023 and $1,050,115 in 2025. That kind of recurrence also appears in the foundation’s work with other Christian institutions and related ministries, suggesting a grantmaker that favors long-term relationships over one-off awards. The foundation’s portfolio includes large gifts to National Christian Foundation, International Justice Mission, Anago Partners, and Hope College, alongside support for faith-aligned organizations working in human rights, church networks, and Christian education. Its giving also reaches local community-support and crisis-intervention groups in Georgia, showing that the foundation’s faith-based priorities are not limited to congregational support alone. The largest recent awards are substantial: $900,000 to National Christian Foundation in 2025 and $515,000 to International Justice Mission in 2025. Those grants sit alongside smaller awards in the five- and six-figure range, indicating a pattern of selective but meaningful funding. The foundation also appears to reuse the same recipient relationships across years, especially in church, philanthropy-intermediary, and anti-trafficking work. The result is a narrow, highly intentional grantmaking profile centered on evangelical Christian institutions and closely aligned ministry partners.
In church support, The Gaby Family Foundation gave $1,050,115 to Perimeter Church in 2025 and also funded Anago Partners with $300,000 in 2025. Those grants place local congregational and church-network support near the center of its giving. In human rights and survivor protection, the foundation awarded $515,000 to International Justice Mission in 2025 and $255,000 in 2023. That recurring support points to sustained backing for anti-trafficking and justice work. The foundation also funds Christian education and youth-related work. It gave $150,000 to Arete Scholars in 2025 for children’s education, and $300,000 to Young America’s Foundation in 2023 for youth programming. Public policy organizations are also part of the mix, with grants such as $250,000 to Alliance Defending Freedom in 2023 and $100,000 to Teneo Network in 2025.
Typical awards cluster in the middle range, with p25 at $5,000, a median grant of $15,000, and p75 at $50,000. The recent-grants list also shows that the foundation makes some much larger gifts, but those sit above the usual range. Several recipients appear in multiple years, including Perimeter Church, International Justice Mission, Pathways 2 Life, Promise 686, Hope College, Alliance Defending Freedom, and Anago Partners. That repetition suggests ongoing relationships rather than isolated transactions. The foundation is classified as a regular funder, and the profile provided does not indicate an application process.
