The Cameron Charitable Foundation concentrates its philanthropy on supporting regional healthcare institutions in the New York/Connecticut suburban corridor, providing general operating and program support to local hospitals and their foundations. Grants are directed to well-known community hospitals (notably Greenwich and White Plains) suggesting a focus on maintaining healthcare capacity and services close to the foundation’s home base in Larchmont. The foundation’s giving is pragmatic and institution-focused rather than issue-specific programmatic funding.
Concentrated, small portfolio: a few relatively large unrestricted grants in a single year to nearby hospitals, including repeat support to the same grantee (Greenwich Hospital Foundation); funding is geographically local and institutionally concentrated rather than broadly distributed.
A pair of $45,000 grants anchors the Cameron Charitable Foundation’s recent giving: one to Greenwich Hospital Foundation in Cos Cob, Connecticut, and one to White Plains Hospital in White Plains, New York. That pattern points to a foundation that backs regional healthcare institutions serving the suburban New York-Connecticut corridor, with support aimed at keeping local hospitals and their affiliated foundations funded. The foundation’s recent grants also include smaller awards to Feeding Westchester and the American Cancer Society, showing that its philanthropy extends beyond hospital general support when the need fits its local, health-related priorities. The Cameron Charitable Foundation gives at a modest scale overall, with annual grants totaling $133,000 and a total asset base of $836,732. Its recent activity is concentrated in institutional support rather than individual giving, and the grantees in the record are all U.S.-based. The pattern is practical and locally focused: recurring support for the same hospital organizations appears alongside targeted gifts to nearby nonprofit health and service organizations.
Healthcare dominates the foundation’s grantmaking. In 2024, it gave $45,000 to Greenwich Hospital Foundation in Cos Cob, Connecticut, for general charitable purposes, and in 2025 it gave $45,000 to White Plains Hospital in White Plains, New York, also for general charitable purposes. Those awards suggest sustained support for hospital operations and community health capacity in the suburban New York-Connecticut corridor. The foundation also backs food assistance and broader community health needs. It gave $4,000 to Feeding Westchester in Elmsford, New York, in 2025 and $2,000 to the same organization in 2023, indicating repeat support for regional hunger relief. A $2,000 grant to the American Cancer Society in Norwalk, Connecticut, shows additional interest in cancer-related charitable work within the same geography.
Typical grant size is $3,000 at the 25th percentile, $15,000 at the median, and $32,500 at the 75th percentile. The recent record shows both repeat recipients and one-off gifts: Greenwich Hospital Foundation, White Plains Hospital, and Feeding Westchester each appear more than once across 2023 to 2025. The foundation is a grantmaking charity rather than an individual-giving vehicle, and it does not make program-related investments. Grant purposes are listed as general charitable, with several awards functioning as unrestricted institutional support.
