About Harvest Foundation of the Piedmont
The Harvest Foundation of the Piedmont appears to operate as a highly concentrated funder: all recorded grant dollars (two grants totaling $18.56M) are directed to a single, unspecified recipient referenced as "SEE STATEMENT 17 ATTACHED." There is no program-level detail in the data, so the foundation’s thematic priorities cannot be confidently identified beyond large, likely one-off or estate-directed institutional support, probably tied to local or regional purposes given the foundation’s Martinsville, VA location.

About Harvest Foundation of the Piedmont
The Harvest Foundation of the Piedmont’s recorded grantmaking is dominated by two very large grants, including a $9,413,797 award in 2025 and a $9,148,305 award in 2023, both to "See Statement 17 Attached" in Virginia. That pattern sets the tone for this funder: the available record points to concentrated, institution-scale giving rather than a broad spread of small awards. Alongside those grants, the foundation shows an active local grantmaking structure built around Martinsville-Henry County, with named opportunities for community initiatives, housing support, youth projects, and strategic planning. The foundation’s programs indicate a strong place-based orientation, especially around community vitality and long-range planning for the region it serves. Publicly listed pathways include General Responsive grantmaking, Project Hope, PUP! Grants, an Affordable Housing Fund, Harvest Youth Board Grants, and a strategic visioning RFP. Taken together, the data show a funder that mixes very large disbursements with a visible menu of local programs tied to Martinsville-Henry County priorities.
What Harvest Foundation of the Piedmont Funds
Housing is one of the clearest program areas in the foundation’s active portfolio. The Affordable Housing Fund supports local housing development efforts in Martinsville-Henry County, including stop-gap support for the Five Points neighborhood project. Community planning is another defined area: the Strategic Visioning & Long-Range Planning RFP funds a consulting firm or team to lead a 25-year visioning process for Martinsville-Henry County and inform the foundation’s next 3–5-year strategic plan. Youth-focused giving appears as well through Harvest Youth Board Grants, which support programs and projects for children and youth in Martinsville-Henry County. The foundation also lists Project Hope for local organizations and volunteer groups working on community revitalization, community connections, and youth projects.
How Harvest Foundation of the Piedmont Gives
The recorded grant-size distribution is extremely flat at the top: p25, median, and p75 are all $9,148,305, which reflects a very concentrated pattern in the available data. The two largest recent grants are both to the same unnamed recipient reference, suggesting repeat support over multiple years rather than many separate grantees. The foundation does not make program-related investments and does not fund individuals. It operates as a local funder, and several of its named programs accept unsolicited requests, including General Responsive, Project Hope, PUP! Grants, Harvest Youth Board Grants, and Pass GO.
