About Jannus
Jannus Inc. has built a grantmaking pattern around refugee resettlement in Idaho, with repeated large awards to the same local partners across Boise and Twin Falls. The largest recent grant in the record was $2,876,024 to the International Rescue Committee in Boise for refugee resettlement and placement in the Boise area, followed by another $2,355,090 grant to the same organization in 2024. That repeat support signals a long-running, place-based approach rather than one-off project funding. The foundation also backs organizations that handle the practical parts of newcomer integration. It granted $913,676 to the College of Southern Idaho in Twin Falls for refugee resettlement and placement, and $862,142 to Polishchuk Consulting LLC in Boise for Ukrainian refugee resettlement and placement. Other awards extend the same work into legal aid, school navigation, and family support. The pattern fits Jannus Inc.’s stated work in community health and economic opportunity, with refugee services as the clearest line of recent giving. Its grants are concentrated in Idaho communities, especially Boise, Twin Falls, Pocatello, and Meridian, and the record shows multiple years of funding to the same local recipients.
What Jannus Funds
Refugee support is the clearest theme in Jannus Inc.’s recent giving. In 2025, it gave $250,103 to Christensen Legal Pllc in Boise to provide immigration legal services to refugees, and in the same year it granted $106,345 to Atkin Immigration Law in Jerome for the same purpose. Those awards show legal assistance as part of the foundation’s refugee strategy. Education support appears through school-based grants. Boise Independent Schools received $235,268 in 2024 to improve education achievement of refugee children at three Boise schools and improve the psycho-social health of refugee children at The Bridge Program. Twin Falls School District received $156,381 in 2025 to maintain a family liaison position and support the 6th-12th grade newcomer center. The foundation also funds youth and family navigation. West Ada Joint School District got $205,594 in 2025 to support a family advocate helping families register at schools and complete forms and procedural documents, while African Community Development received $27,691 in 2025 for youth refugee mentorship programs in Boise.
