    About High Foundation

    The High Foundation makes very large, concentrated charitable gifts rather than many small awards. With only two grants totaling about $8.7 million (both labeled generically as “charitable”), the foundation appears to focus on sizable, one-off or infrequent commitments—likely to established nonprofit recipients or major projects—possibly within or near its Lancaster, PA base. Because the recorded grant descriptions are generic, the precise programmatic priorities are not clear and would require follow-up documentation to identify issue areas.

    Focus Areas

    Major charitable/operating support to established nonprofits (large single grants)Likely Lancaster-area or regional philanthropic support (inferred from foundation location)Capital projects or endowment/seeding grants (inferred from very large award sizes)

    Who They Fund

    established nonprofit organizations (institutional recipients)Lancaster-area or regional community organizationsmajor project/institutional grantees (capital or endowment recipients)

    Giving Approach

    Highly concentrated giving: very few grants but large dollar amounts; appears to favor large, possibly multi-year or capital-style awards to a small set of recipients rather than broad, distributed grantmaking.

    About High Foundation

    High Foundation’s recorded giving is defined by two very large charitable grants, one for $5,678,465 in 2024 and another for $3,041,509 in 2023, both sent to Lancaster, PA recipients. That pattern points to a funder that favors concentrated commitments over many smaller awards, with its most visible support landing in the same local community where it is headquartered. The foundation’s program portfolio shows that this concentration is not limited to one theme: it includes strategic work in Environment and Affordable Housing, annual Opportunity Grants aligned to economic vibrancy and community vitality, an Essence of Humanity Award for individuals and caregivers, and a scholarship program. Those named programs suggest a mix of institutional support, community recognition, and targeted investment in workforce, housing, and well-being. The grant record also shows that all reported grants went to U.S. recipients, with Pennsylvania as the top state by grant count. High Foundation’s public-facing grant data therefore reads as local, large-scale, and program-driven, with a strong preference for substantial commitments within its Lancaster-area sphere.

    What High Foundation Funds

    High Foundation’s named programs point to four main funding lanes. Through the High Impact Portfolio, the foundation backs large-scale work in Environment and Affordable Housing, including commitments tied to an environmental center, nature preserve, and affordable workforce housing. Its Opportunity Grants program supports community partners where High companies operate and is aligned with Economic Vibrancy, Community Vitality, and Individual and Social Well-Being. The program description specifically includes economic security and mobility, generational wealth-building, education, workforce development, and supportive services. The Essence of Humanity Award recognizes individuals and caregivers for courage, persistence, and service to their communities, with selections made through nominations from community benefit organizations and a selection committee. The High Coworker Scholarship program adds educational support through scholarships.

    How High Foundation Gives

    High Foundation’s recorded grant sizes are very large: the 25th percentile is $3,700,748, the median is $4,359,987, and the 75th percentile is $5,019,226. The recent record provided shows two charitable grants across 2023 and 2024, which suggests a concentrated, infrequent pattern rather than broad annual dispersal. The foundation does not fund individuals, and it does not make program-related investments. Its giving is local, and the reported grants all went to Pennsylvania recipients. The presence of named programs indicates structured, program-based giving rather than purely ad hoc awards.
