    About Cooney Family Foundation

    The Cooney Family Foundation concentrates its giving on local and regional education, arts, and community service organizations, favoring operating support rather than project-specific grants. Most grants are sizable and concentrated among a handful of repeat recipients — especially arts institutions and faith-based schools — with additional support for social services like food access and reentry/arts programs. Their pattern suggests a community-focused, place-based philanthropy that values sustaining organizations' core operations.

    About Cooney Family Foundation

    A 2025 operating grant of $118,000 to Rockhurst University stands out in the Cooney Family Foundation’s recent giving, showing a preference for sustaining institutions rather than funding one-time projects. The foundation’s grant program supports qualified public entities and 501(c)(3) charities aligned with education, the arts, and community programming, and its recent awards reflect that mandate through operating-cost support. Grants in the file range from $5,000 to $118,000, with repeated awards to organizations in Sedalia and Kansas City, alongside support for a Portland-based reentry and arts program. The foundation’s giving pattern includes faith-based K-12 education, regional arts institutions, higher education, and local human services. Sacred Heart School Foundation received $76,000 for operating costs in 2025, and Liberty Center Assoc for the Arts received both a $55,000 grant in 2025 and a $25,000 grant in 2023, again for operations. That mix of recipients points to a place-based funder that favors core support for organizations serving education, culture, and basic community needs.

    What Cooney Family Foundation Funds

    Education is a central theme in the Cooney Family Foundation’s grantmaking. Rockhurst University received $118,000 in 2025 for operational costs, and Sacred Heart School Foundation received $76,000 for operational costs the same year. The foundation also supported Camp Blue Sky with $10,000 in 2025 and $5,000 in 2023, both for operational costs. Arts support is another clear strand. Liberty Center Assoc for the Arts was awarded $55,000 in 2025 and $25,000 in 2023, each listed as contribution for operational costs. For human services, Sedalia-Pettis County United Way received $25,000 in 2025 for operational costs, and Open Door Service Center received $5,000 in 2023 for soup kitchen support. The file also includes a $50,000 operating grant to On the Inside, a Portland organization tied to prison reentry and arts-in-corrections programming.

    How Cooney Family Foundation Gives

    Typical grant size is $5,000 at the 25th percentile and median, with a $15,000 75th percentile, though a few awards are much larger. The recent record shows both repeat and one-time recipients: Liberty Center Assoc for the Arts appears in 2023 and 2025, and Camp Blue Sky appears in both years as well. The foundation is a family foundation with a stated annual grant program, and it accepts unsolicited applications. Grants in the file are generally one-year awards and are often described as contributions for operational costs.
