The Worldwide Small Change Foundation directs its philanthropic dollars narrowly and purposefully: all recorded grants went to a single organization, suggesting a focused commitment to expanding global higher‑education access and campus partnerships. Their support appears unrestricted/charitable and intended to sustain a single programmatic partner rather than a diversified portfolio of causes.
Concentrated support to one repeat grantee (three grants totaling $105,000), indicating a preference for sustained funding to a single organization rather than many small or widely distributed grants.
Worldwide Small Change Foundation Co Roy Kaufmann shows a sustained pattern of backing a single education partner: Global Campuses Foundation received $35,000 in 2023, 2024, and 2025. That repeated support points to a funder that favors continuity over a broad portfolio. The foundation’s recorded grants also extend into refugee and community-serving work, including awards to Lutheran Immigration Refugee Servic, Homes Not Borders, and Global Refuge, alongside support for Washington, DC institutions and nonprofits. The giving pattern suggests a charitable grantmaker that uses relatively modest awards to reinforce operating and program capacity. Recent recipients include Washington International School, The Family Place Inc, and Sibley Memorial Hospital Foundation, which indicates an interest in education, family support, and health-related community infrastructure. The foundation’s latest 990 on file is 2025, and its annual grants total $733,950 against assets of $3,478,499. Although the organization gives regionally, its recipient base is heavily concentrated in the United States, with a small number of Canadian grants appearing in the record.
A core theme in the foundation’s giving is global higher-education access. Global Campuses Foundation received $35,000 in each of 2023, 2024, and 2025, making it the clearest example of the funder’s support for international learning partnerships. The foundation also backs refugee and immigration-related services. In 2025 it granted $20,000 to Lutheran Immigration Refugee Servic and $10,000 to Global Refuge, showing continued attention to organizations serving displaced people. Community support is another visible thread. The foundation gave $15,000 in 2025 to Food Friends and $14,000 to Homes Not Borders, while Washington International School received $12,000 in 2024 and 2025. These grants place education, housing-related aid, and local nonprofit capacity within the same funding pattern.
Typical grant sizes are small to mid-sized: the 25th percentile is $2,500, median grant size is $3,500, and the 75th percentile is $9,000. The record also includes a narrow set of larger awards, but the middle of the distribution stays modest. Grantmaking appears repeat-oriented rather than one-off: several recipients show up across multiple years, including Global Campuses Foundation, Food Friends, Gullotta House, The Family Place Inc, Sibley Memorial Hospital Foundation, and Washington International School. The foundation is not a funder of individuals and is not making program-related investments. The available record points to charitable grants rather than a public application process.
