Undies for Everyone provides new underwear for U.S. children living in poverty or crisis to restore dignity, confidence, and self-esteem so students are ready to learn and grow.
Undies for Everyone centers its grantmaking on a specific material need: new underwear for U.S. children living in poverty or crisis. That direct-service model is tied to school readiness and dignity, with grants repeatedly framed as support for children in need so they can learn and grow. The foundation’s recent awards show a broad delivery network that includes public schools, homeless education programs, food banks, and child-serving nonprofits. In 2023, the largest recent grant in the data went to Convoy of Hope for $160,470 to provide children in need with new underwear. Other large awards followed a similar pattern, including $64,338 to Los Angeles Unified School District and $60,984 to Houston ISD Foundation for the same purpose. The mix of recipients suggests a funder that works through institutions already serving children at scale, rather than through individual aid. Undies for Everyone’s giving also appears alongside school-based and community-based partners in major metro areas, with repeated support for organizations in Houston and other cities. The foundation’s leadership is listed as Rabbi Amy Weiss.
A clear thread in the grant list is support for school-based homelessness and student-services programs. The foundation gave $57,189 to Houston ISD Homeless Education Office in 2023 and $35,743 to Dallas ISD Homeless Education Program the same year, both for new underwear. Child-welfare and family-support intermediaries are another important channel. Undies for Everyone awarded $48,787 to Detroit PS Office of Homeless and Foster Care and $30,492 to DCPS Homeless Children and Youth Program, again with the same purpose. Community distribution partners also receive support. The foundation gave $36,590 to Houston Food Bank and $43,870 to Boys & Girls Club of Maui, showing that it funds organizations able to place basic clothing directly with children. The grant list also includes city and district education offices such as the Mayor's Office of Education & Youth Engagement in Houston and Miami Dade PS Homeless, both aligned with the same underwear provision model.
Undies for Everyone’s typical grant size is mid-sized: the 25th percentile is $7,149, the median is $14,297, and the 75th percentile is $28,595. The recent grants show a wider operational range as well, from smaller awards near the lower quartile to a $160,470 grant at the top of the list. The pattern also suggests repeated support to the same recipients across years. Houston Food Bank appears in both 2023 and 2024, Dallas ISD Homeless Education Program appears in both years, and Houston-based BEAR is listed twice with slightly different naming. The organization is a private foundation-style grantmaker in the data provided, with no program-related investments and no funding to individuals.
