The Page Charitable Foundation concentrates its giving in two clear areas: international girls' welfare/poverty relief in Thailand and major U.S. cancer research/treatment. Grants are few but sizable and provided as general operating support, with repeat commitments to the same organizations rather than one-off gifts. The foundation appears focused on direct program impact (child protection/empowerment abroad) and biomedical research/clinical care domestically.
Concentrated, high-dollar giving to a very small set of repeat grantees; funds are provided as unrestricted/general purpose support rather than project-specific grants.
Arlene F Page and J David Page Charitable Foundation Inc. shows a distinctive split between Thai girls' welfare and U.S. cancer philanthropy. In 2025, the foundation made two $90,000 general-purpose grants to Friends of Thai Daughters and two $50,000 general-purpose grants to Dana Farber Cancer Fund, signaling repeated support for the same organizations rather than one-time gifts. The pattern points to a grantmaker that backs flexible use funding at meaningful levels, with awards often sized for operating support rather than restricted projects. Beyond those anchor recipients, the recent record includes grants to groups working in child welfare, disease research, and direct services, suggesting a broad charitable portfolio even as the largest commitments stay concentrated. The foundation's giving also reaches smaller nonprofit organizations and community groups, but the recurring structure at the top of the schedule is the clearest signal of its approach. Its recent history suggests preference for organizations with ongoing program needs, where unrestricted or general-purpose support can be deployed across core activities.
One clear topic area is support for at-risk girls in Thailand. The foundation gave two $90,000 general-purpose grants to Friends of Thai Daughters, reflecting sustained backing for work tied to child protection and poverty relief. Another major area is cancer research and treatment, marked by two $50,000 general-purpose grants to Dana Farber Cancer Fund. The broader 2025 list also includes health-related giving to Buoniconti Fund and Hope for a Cure, showing interest in biomedical and disease-focused causes. Outside health and international girls' welfare, the foundation made grants for direct social services and community support, including Feeding the Hungry and Camp Harbor View. The recent record also includes animal welfare and youth-related organizations, indicating a multi-sector pattern within a small set of recurring priorities.
Typical grants cluster in the low-thousands to low-ten-thousands: p25 is $5,000, median is $6,000, and p75 is $12,500. The top of the schedule is much larger, but the broader pattern still includes many mid-sized general-purpose awards. Repeat grants are common: Friends of Thai Daughters appears twice at $90,000, Dana Farber Cancer Fund appears twice at $50,000, and Cheers for Charity appears twice in the same year. The foundation is a regular funder rather than a donor-advised fund and does not fund individuals or make program-related investments. The recent grant list shows annual general-purpose support rather than a visible application-driven cycle.

Notable grantees: Friends of Thai Daughters, Dana-Farber Cancer Fund
Grant recipients are entirely U.S.-based in the recent sample, with 39 grants and 100% of the listed awards going to U.S. organizations. Florida is the top state by grant count, accounting for 35% of grants. Within the list, Wellington, FL appears multiple times, including Polo for Life and Polo Player Support; Boston, MA also appears repeatedly through Dana Farber Cancer Fund, Camp Harbor View, Harvard College, and Boston Pops. Other recipient locations include Miami, FL; South Burlington, VT; and Oak Harbor, WA.
The recent record centers on two recurring themes: at-risk girls' welfare and poverty relief in Thailand, and cancer research or treatment in the United States. The largest repeated grants go to Friends of Thai Daughters and Dana Farber Cancer Fund, both funded twice at the top of the 2025 schedule.
The grants shown are described as general purposes, which aligns with flexible support. The repeated awards to the same organizations suggest ongoing operating-style funding rather than one-off project gifts.
Typical awards are modest relative to the largest gifts: the p25 grant size is $5,000, the median is $6,000, and the p75 is $12,500. That places most grants in a relatively narrow range around general charitable support.
The recent grant list shows U.S. recipients only: 39 grants and 100% of listed awards to U.S.-based organizations. The international element in the foundation's giving appears in the program focus on Thailand rather than in the recipient locations shown here.
Yes. The list includes repeated awards to Friends of Thai Daughters at $90,000, Dana Farber Cancer Fund at $50,000, and Cheers for Charity in two separate grants. That pattern points to ongoing support for selected organizations.
