7‑Eleven Cares Foundation concentrates its funding on large, national health and emergency response charities and a smaller set of patriotic/military and medical research causes. The foundation tends to provide general/unrestricted support to a few repeat national partners (notably disaster relief and children’s hospital fundraising) and makes occasional targeted gifts to medical campaigns and veteran/honor initiatives.
7-Eleven Cares Foundation’s largest recent awards center on disaster response and national charitable partners, with repeated $250,000 gifts to American National Red Cross and Children’s Miracle Network. That pattern points to a funder that favors a small set of national organizations and often uses unrestricted support, while also stepping in with larger targeted gifts when a campaign or emergency arises. The foundation’s recent giving also reaches into military and veteran causes, including a $150,000 grant to Medal of Honor Museum Foundation for its Leadership Institute Program and $100,000 to Armed Services YMCA of the USA for general support. In health, it has backed cancer treatment and research-related work through The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center and UCLA Foundation. Food security and community events appear as a smaller but visible thread, alongside support for holiday giving and employee volunteer events. Across the file, the foundation appears to combine recurring institutional support with response-oriented grants tied to disasters, commemorations, and community campaigns. Its grant list is entirely U.S.-based, and the mix of grantees shows a preference for established nonprofits, universities, and public-facing service organizations.
Disaster relief is a core theme. In 2025, the foundation gave $250,000 to American National Red Cross for the Disaster Responder Program, following earlier grants for Hurricane Ian Disaster Relief, Ukraine Humanitarian Aid/Relief Campaign, Pakistan Flood Relief Campaign, and Turkey/Syria Earthquake Disaster Relief. Children’s health is another recurring area. The foundation awarded $250,000 to Children’s Miracle Network for General & Unrestricted support in 2025, after a $250,000 grant in 2024 and a $140,000 grant in 2023. Military and veteran-related work also shows up in the recent list. One example is $100,000 to Armed Services YMCA of the USA for General & Unrestricted support, and another is $25,000 to Wear Blue Run to Remember for the Gold Star Race Program tied to the Marine Corp Marathon. Health research and treatment support appear through named campaigns such as MD Anderson’s Celebrates More Tomorrows Campaign and UCLA Health’s Operation Mend Patient Care Fund.
Typical grants are small-to-midsize, with a p25 of $711, a median of $2,000, and a p75 of $5,375, even though the recent list includes several six-figure awards. The pattern suggests a mix of many modest gifts and a handful of larger anchor grants. Recipients do repeat across years: American National Red Cross, Children’s Miracle Network, and Minnies Food Pantry Inc each appear more than once. The foundation is structured as a corporate foundation, and it funds individuals directly. The grant list does not show an open application process; the recent awards read as directed grants and event-linked support.

Concentrated giving with a small number of large grants; repeat, unrestricted support to core national partners alongside occasional one‑off campaign gifts to medical and veterans’ institutions.
Notable grantees: American National Red Cross, Children’s Miracle Network, Medal of Honor Museum Foundation, The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center
All listed grants go to U.S. recipients, with 100% of grants in the United States. The highest concentration is in Texas, which is also where several named grantees are located: Dallas, Houston, Arlington, Plano, Fort Myers Beach, and other Texas cities appear repeatedly. Outside Texas, the foundation reaches Boone, Iowa; Salt Lake City, Utah; and Washington, DC. Recent awards also land in Pasadena, California; Springfield and Dayton, Ohio; and Evanston, Illinois. This spread fits a national giving pattern rather than a single-region program.
Recent grants show a strong emphasis on disaster relief, children’s health, military and veteran-related work, and occasional food security or community-event support. Named examples include American National Red Cross, Children’s Miracle Network, Armed Services YMCA of the USA, and food pantry and holiday-giving grants in Texas and Ohio.
The typical grant size is modest: p25 is $711, median is $2,000, and p75 is $5,375. The recent file also includes larger grants such as $250,000 awards, but those sit above the center of the distribution.
Yes. American National Red Cross appears multiple times across 2023, 2024, and 2025, Children’s Miracle Network appears in three different years, and Minnies Food Pantry Inc appears in both 2023 and 2024. That points to recurring relationships rather than one-off gifts only.
The geographic scope is national, and all listed grants are to U.S. recipients. Texas is the top state by grant count, with repeated awards to organizations in Dallas, Houston, Arlington, Plano, Fort Myers Beach, and other Texas locations.
Yes. The foundation funds individuals directly, alongside its grants to nonprofits, universities, and charitable campaigns. The recent grant list shows a mix of general support, disaster relief, event sponsorship, and targeted program funding.
