Crowley Cares Foundation's giving is narrowly focused and civic-minded, directing its entire reported 12,500 USD in this period to support veterans' remembrance activities. The single grant supports Wreaths Across America, indicating a priority on honoring military service through memorial wreath-laying and related ceremonies. The foundation appears to make targeted, one-off community or corporate philanthropy commitments rather than a broad portfolio of grantees.
Crowley Cares Foundation’s most distinctive recent pattern is its repeated support for Wreaths Across America, including a $12,500 grant in 2023 and additional $7,500 and $5,000 gifts in 2024. That thread points to a narrow, commemorative style of giving centered on veterans’ remembrance and cemetery wreath sponsorships. The foundation’s other grants show that this is not its only lane: it also backed Jacksonville-based community events, health walks, youth programs, and civic celebrations. The grants list shows a foundation that favors event-linked support and direct, named commitments rather than a wide, diffuse portfolio. In 2024, Crowley Cares Foundation gave to 904ward Inc for general support, to Jax River City Pride for River City Pride, and to Boys and Girls Clubs of Northeast Florida for McKenzie’s Camp Deep Pond projects. It also supported Jacksonville University’s Marine Science Research Institute, linking philanthropy to specific campus and community activities. Across the recent record, the foundation’s grantmaking reads as locally engaged, cause-specific, and often tied to a program, event, or sponsorship purpose.
Veterans remembrance is the clearest theme in the recent record. Crowley Cares Foundation gave $12,500 to Wreaths Across America for Wreaths Across America, then followed with a $7,500 wreath sponsorship and two more $5,000 wreath sponsorship grants in 2024. Beyond that, the foundation supported health fundraising events. It gave $5,000 to the American Heart Association Inc for the First Coast Heart Walk Fund, and another $5,000 to the American Heart Association - Pennsylvania Delaware Affiliate for the First Coast Heart Walk. Youth and school-related giving also appears. The foundation gave $3,100 to Lift Jax Inc for the Kids Hope Alliance Historic Back to School Event and $2,500 to the same organization for Historic Eastside Back to School. It also supported Junior Achievement of North Florida with a $2,500 Chairman Sponsorship.
Typical grants cluster in the low-thousands: p25 is $1,000, median is $2,500, and p75 is $5,000. The recent record also includes larger sponsorship-style commitments, but most awards sit within that compact range. The pattern is more episodic than recurring by grantee, though Wreaths Across America appears multiple times across 2023 and 2024. Crowley Cares Foundation is not a private operating foundation or a DAF in the provided data; it is reported as a foundation that makes grants and also funds individuals. The recent gifts read as targeted awards tied to events, ceremonies, or named programs rather than an open application portfolio.

Highly concentrated: a single, modest-sized grant in the reporting period to a national veterans memorialization organization; appears to favor targeted community or corporate-sponsored giving rather than diversified or multi-year commitments.
