This trust directs the bulk of its giving to hospital systems and health-care foundations, providing large, general-purpose operating support to regional medical centers. Grants are targeted and sizable, with a secondary, smaller commitment to an early-childhood nonprofit. The foundation appears oriented toward sustaining clinical institutions rather than program-specific or community development projects.
Concentrated, high-dollar grants to a small set of repeat institutional grantees (multiple multi-thousand-dollar gifts to hospital foundations), with a few smaller, one-off grants outside health care.
Edwin J Hoffritz Tr Uw Article Seventh shows a clear pattern of underwriting large, flexible support for regional health institutions, especially in New York. The biggest recent grants in the file include repeated awards of $175,000 to New York-Presbyterian Fund Inc and $175,000 to Northwell Health Foundation, both for general charitable purposes. The trust also made multiple six-figure commitments to Good Samaritan Hospital Foundation, reinforcing a hospital-centered portfolio rather than a broad mix of community grants. Medical and health-related organizations account for much of the activity visible in the recent grants list. Alongside hospital systems, the foundation has supported a healthcare-related network in Brooklyn, a university health system, and organizations serving people affected by chronic or serious conditions. Its grantmaking is not limited to one year: several recipients appear in consecutive years, with the same institutions receiving support again at similar levels. The presence of Room to Grow and other smaller charitable grants adds a limited early-childhood and human-services layer, but the center of gravity remains institutional health care with unrestricted support.
Hospital systems and medical centers are the core of the trust’s giving. New York-Presbyterian Fund Inc received $175,000 in 2024 and again in 2025 for general charitable purposes, while Northwell Health Foundation received $175,000 in 2024 and $80,000 in 2025. A second thread is support for hospital-affiliated foundations and related medical infrastructure. Good Samaritan Hospital Foundation was awarded $150,000 in 2023, $150,000 in 2024, and $110,000 in 2025. NYU Langone Health System also appears in the recent grants list with $50,000 in 2023 and $60,000 in 2024. The trust also funds organizations serving specific patient populations and family services. Helen Keller Services for the Blind received $70,500 in 2024 and $60,000 in 2025, while Room to Grow National Inc received $90,000 in 2024 and $50,000 in 2025.
Typical grants cluster in the mid-five-figure range: the 25th percentile is $40,000, the median is $55,000, and the 75th percentile is $80,000. The recent grants list shows repeat support across multiple years for several recipients, indicating a recurring grantmaking pattern rather than one-off awards. The trust is structured as a grantmaker that does not fund individuals and does not make program-related investments. Awards are frequently described as general charitable or general operating support, suggesting flexibility in how recipients use the funds.
