About Episcopal Retirement Services Foundation
Episcopal Retirement Services Foundation’s recent grant history is dominated by large general operating awards to two Cincinnati organizations: Episcopal Retirement Homes Inc and Episcopal Retirement Services. The biggest recent grant in the record is $3,432,350 to Episcopal Retirement Homes Inc in 2024, followed by $2,054,670 in 2023 and $1,852,541 in 2025, showing repeated support across multiple years. A second set of operating grants goes to Episcopal Retirement Services, including $638,948 in 2025 and $546,238 in 2024. That pattern fits the foundation’s stated purpose: to serve older adults in a person-centered, innovative, and spiritually based way. Its active giving opportunities also point to the same mission, with named funds for meals and food support, staff development, endowment, mission needs, well-being in affordable living, and memory support and inclusion. The foundation’s public record shows a strong preference for operating support rather than narrowly earmarked project grants, with funding directed to organizations that appear to be part of its own service ecosystem.
