About Archewell Foundation
Archewell Foundation’s recent grantmaking shows a clear interest in trauma recovery, gender justice, digital accountability, and humanitarian response. One of its largest recent grants went to Womens Wellness Space for a safe space focused on wellness for women who have experienced trauma, signaling support for direct services rooted in healing. Another major award supported Georgetown’s initiative on gender justice and opportunity to build trainings addressing adultification bias and inequities faced by Black girls in the justice, education, and medical system. The foundation also backed play therapy and community healing at Deleon Park in Uvalde through Kaboom Inc, linking child-centered spaces to community recovery. Beyond those flagship examples, Archewell Foundation has funded work for parents concerned about child online safety, digital civil rights activism, and media research on harmful cultural beliefs affecting mothers. Its portfolio also includes relief for refugees and asylum seekers, mental health support for aid workers, and menstrual health education for young people. The pattern is one of targeted grants to organizations working on urgent social needs rather than broad, unrestricted support across many unrelated fields.
What Archewell Foundation Funds
In trauma-informed wellness, the foundation gave $250,000 to Womens Wellness Space to create a safe space focused on wellness for women who have experienced trauma. In child healing and community recovery, it awarded $165,000 to Kaboom Inc to create a play space for play therapy and healing for children and the community at Deleon Park in Uvalde, Texas. For gender justice, Archewell Foundation gave $200,000 to Georgetown for an initiative building trainings on adultification bias and the inequities faced by Black girls in the justice, education, and medical system. In digital civil rights, it supported NAACP Empowerment Programs Inc with $125,000 for the Digital Civil Rights Award and later another $125,000 for digital civil rights work. The foundation also funded Parents Together Foundation with $50,000 for tech accountability related to parents and families.
How Archewell Foundation Gives
Archewell Foundation’s typical grant sizes cluster around the mid-five-figure range: p25 is $25,000, median is $34,406, and p75 is $72,500. Recent awards show both one-time project support and repeated support to some recipients across multiple years, including Georgetown, NAACP Empowerment Programs Inc, and Omprakash Foundation.

Publicly listed grants are programmatic and purpose-specific, with direct-service, research, and capacity-building uses all represented.
