Eleos Foundation concentrates virtually all of its giving on a single faith-based partner, Africa Inland Church Tanzania (AICT), funding discrete community development and health projects in Tanzania. Grants support on-the-ground infrastructure and program assistance—water filtration, maternity ward and dispensary construction/renovation, clinical testing projects, and small-scale livelihood (poultry) expansion—indicating a preference for practical, project-level investments with measurable local impact. The foundation appears mission-driven toward international Christian-led community health and basic needs interventions rather than broad institutional support or diversified giving.
Eleos Foundation’s recent giving is dominated by a single Tanzania-based partner, Africa Inland Church Tanzania (AICT), with grants that bundle water filtration products, maternity ward support, testing projects, poultry house expansion, and new dispensary and clinic work in Mwanza. That pattern shows a foundation that favors practical, project-level support over broad, unrestricted institutional funding. Across the latest filings, the largest awards sit in the six-figure range, and the foundation has also returned to the same recipient year after year, including grants for ministry assistance and individual assistance. The support extends beyond infrastructure: AICT also appears in the records for medical expenses, burial costs, housing projects, and educational assistance, suggesting a mix of community development and direct aid. One non-Tanzania grant appears in the recent list, but the overall record is centered on AICT and on on-the-ground needs that can be tied to specific facilities, programs, and people. The foundation’s profile is therefore defined less by a broad portfolio and more by repeated, mission-linked support for a closely connected partner.
In community health infrastructure, Eleos Foundation funded AICT for maternity ward work, testing projects, and a new dispensary and clinic, tying capital support to local healthcare access. In water and sanitation, the same partner received support for water filtration products, showing that clean-water investments sit alongside medical projects rather than apart from them. The foundation also backed small-scale livelihood expansion through poultry house expansion, a grant purpose that sits within the same project-assistance package as health and water work. Beyond infrastructure, Eleos gave individual assistance for medical expenses, burial costs, and housing projects, indicating that direct household-level support is part of its pattern as well. Educational assistance also appears in the record, with tuition, room, and board support for AICT-related recipients.
Eleos Foundation’s grants show a middle-heavy distribution, with a p25 of $4,899, a median of $37,313, and a p75 of $86,187. The recent record includes repeated awards to the same Tanzania recipient across 2023, 2024, and 2025, which points to recurring support rather than one-time giving. The foundation also funds individuals, not only organizations, and its recent filings include both project assistance and individual assistance. The pattern is hands-on and designated: grants are tied to specific purposes such as water filtration, ministry equipment, medical aid, and education. No application process is stated in the provided data.

Highly concentrated: all funding is directed to one recurring grantee (AICT) across multiple project-specific grants, focused on moderate-sized, operational and capital projects in a single country rather than dispersed, multi-recipient or unrestricted general support.
