The Daniel H Herbert Sr Family Foundation concentrates on providing unrestricted/general operating support to a small set of mostly faith-linked and medical charities. Grants are dominated by repeated, sizable gifts to a local Presbyterian church and major national nonprofits focused on pediatric research, services for the blind, and international relief. The foundation favors organizational support over project-restricted funding and blends local religious giving with national health and humanitarian causes.
Concentrated giving: a small number of medium-to-large general operating grants, several repeat payments to the same organizations, mixing local faith-based support with selected national health and relief charities.
Daniel H Herbert Sr Fam Fdn Im gives mostly unrestricted support to a small set of recurring beneficiaries, with its largest recent gifts going to Trinity Presbyterian Church and St Jude Children's Research Hospital at $20,000 each in 2023.
