    About Martin Family Foundation C/O Larry Bean

    The Martin Family Foundation is making large, targeted investments in a single K–12 institution in Denver, focusing on strengthening a faith‑based/classical high school through capital projects, scholarships, and program expansion. Their grants support both bricks‑and‑mortar needs (chapel construction, athletic equipment) and programmatic growth (startup expenses, Totus Tuus Catholic programming) and include matching/grant incentives to leverage additional support.

    About Martin Family Foundation C/O Larry Bean

    The Martin Family Foundation C/o Larry Bean has made a defining commitment to Central Denver Classical High School, including a $515,000 grant in 2025 for scholarship support, athletic equipment, and phase II chapel construction. That single relationship captures much of how the foundation gives: it backs faith-based education with large, targeted awards that combine tuition help, capital work, and program expansion. Recent grants show a strong preference for Catholic and Christian institutions and for projects tied to formation, discipleship, and school growth. In Denver, the foundation supported Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic School with tuition aid and development staffing, and it provided major support to Seeds of Hope for educational purposes across multiple years. The foundation also funded Wyoming Catholic College for scholarships and backed Catholic Charities & Community Services for counseling and renovation work. Across the portfolio, awards often connect a practical need with a mission-driven purpose, such as chapel construction, scholarship programs, seminarian formation, and evangelism. The pattern is consistent with a regional funder that makes selective grants to a relatively small set of organizations rather than dispersing many small awards.

    What Martin Family Foundation C/O Larry Bean Funds

    Faith-based education is the clearest thread in the portfolio. The foundation gave $515,000 to Central Denver Classical High School for scholarship support, athletic equipment, and phase II chapel construction, and it also awarded $150,000 to Alliance for Choice in Education for general operations and tuition assistance. Catholic school access appears in other grants as well. Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic School received $150,000 for tuition grant and development director support, followed by another $130,000 for tuition assistance. Wyoming Catholic College received $100,000 for its scholarship program. The foundation also supports evangelization and youth formation. It gave $95,000 to Christ in the City for lifelong mission and $75,000 to Capuchin Province of Mid-america for a seminarian formation program. On the service side, it awarded $55,000 to Catholic Charities & Community Services for St. Raphael Counseling and Samaritan House renovation.

    How Martin Family Foundation C/O Larry Bean Gives

    Typical grants cluster around a mid-five-figure range, with a p25 of $5,000, a median of $25,000, and a p75 of $50,000. Recent awards also show much larger checks, including six-figure grants and a $515,000 award, so the foundation uses both standard program grants and larger project-based commitments. The recent list includes repeat recipients across multiple years, suggesting ongoing relationships rather than one-off support. The foundation’s grant programs are competitive and accept unsolicited requests, and they are organized around four giving pillars. It funds individuals as well as organizations.
