The John A Kolden Family Foundation appears to make targeted, small-scale grants focused on emergency humanitarian assistance and general charity. Grants have supported large national relief organizations responding to disasters and basic needs, and funding has been directed outside the foundation's Chicago location (e.g., Texas and Florida). The foundation gives a small number of modest gifts and shows a tendency to repeat support to the same organization.
Concentrated, small-number giving: a few modest grants totaling about $11K, including repeat support to at least one grantee; funds directed to national disaster/charity organizations rather than many small local groups.
