The Tracy Foundation appears to make targeted, sizable gifts to intermediary community organizations that support local youth and broad community benefit programs. Its sole recorded grant is a substantial contribution to a community foundation to fund Boys Club activities and other community services, suggesting a preference for supporting grassroots community development and youth recreation. The foundation does not show diversification across sectors or geographies in this dataset.
The Tracy Foundation’s largest recorded grant is $128,000 to Whitefish Community Foundation to fund Boys Club activities and other community benefit programs, which sets the tone for its giving: a small set of targeted gifts aimed at youth, community services, and local institutions. In the latest 990 year on file, the private foundation awarded grants across a narrow range of causes, including civil rights legal support, aging services, equine therapy for disadvantaged people, education, developmental disabilities, and cancer research. Several of the grants flow to intermediary organizations rather than directly to individuals, consistent with a foundation that supports established nonprofits and community-based programming. The year’s list includes support for Plymouth Harbor Foundation for a positive aging experience, Equishui for equine therapy services, and Education Foundation of Sarasota County for quality education for all children. Other gifts reach organizations serving adults with developmental disabilities, public broadcasting, and school extracurricular programs. The giving pattern points to practical program support rather than broad thematic diversification.
Youth-focused support is one of the clearest threads in the Tracy Foundation’s grant list. The largest grant, $128,000 to Whitefish Community Foundation, was earmarked to fund Boys Club activities and other community benefit programs. Smaller education-related gifts reinforce that interest: $10,000 to Education Foundation of Sarasota County to promote quality education for all children, and $5,000 to Warren High School to support extracurricular activities. The foundation also backs services for vulnerable populations. It gave $20,000 to Aclu of Montana Foundation Inc for services to protect and extend basic rights for everyone, and another $20,000 to Montana Innocence Project to support the organization’s programs. Beyond that, it supported Equishui with $15,000 for equine therapy services for the disadvantaged and Angels Place with $10,000 for services for adults with developmental disabilities. Those grants show a mix of legal advocacy, therapeutic services, and direct support programs.
The recorded grants cluster tightly in size: the 25th percentile is $5,000, the median is $7,500, and the 75th percentile is $15,000. One gift stands well above the rest at $128,000, while most others fall between $2,000 and $20,000. The foundation is a private foundation, does not fund individuals, and does not make program-related investments. The available record shows a one-year set of grants in 2025 rather than a repeated multiyear pattern. The recipients are organizations, not individuals, and the purposes are written as program support, unrestricted support, scholarships, and designated service funding. The data does not show an open application process; the pattern instead suggests direct, foundation-selected grants.

The Tracy Foundation gives locally and every recorded grant in the dataset goes to U.S. recipients. Florida is the top state by grant count, with 100% of grants landing in the foundation’s HQ state. Within Florida, grants reached Sarasota, Longboat, and Tampa, including Sarasota-based Plymouth Harbor Foundation, Education Foundation of Sarasota County, and Southwest Florida Easter Seals. Outside Florida, the list includes Whitefish and Missoula in Montana, Brewster, New York, and Boston, Massachusetts.
It supports community foundations, youth recreation and mentoring, civil rights and legal services, positive aging programs, equine therapy for disadvantaged people, education, developmental disabilities services, public broadcasting, and cancer research. The 2025 grants include named support for all of those purposes.
The middle of the distribution is modest: the median grant is $7,500, with a 25th percentile of $5,000 and a 75th percentile of $15,000. One grant is much larger at $128,000, but most recorded awards sit in the low-thousands to mid-teens.
No. Florida is the top state by grant count and receives 100% of the grants in the dataset, but the recipient cities also include Whitefish and Missoula in Montana, Brewster in New York, Boston in Massachusetts, Southfield in Michigan, Vincent in Ohio, and San Rafael in California.
The record on file shows a concentrated 2025 set of grants. Several organizations appear only once in the available data, and the dataset does not show a multiyear pattern of repeat awards to the same recipients.
