The Mabry Foundation focuses on faith-based, mission-driven service in and around Santa Paula/Ventura County, concentrating support on local Christian ministries that provide shelter, food, education and outreach. They favor organizations that run rescue missions, youth and inner-city programs, and outdoor/wilderness ministries, often funding operational/program support rather than one-off capital projects. Giving is geographically concentrated and programmatic, with repeated multi-grant relationships to a handful of core local nonprofits.
Mabry Foundation’s giving is anchored by repeated support for Christian mission and education work across the West, with large awards to groups serving homelessness, youth, and local outreach. In 2025, the foundation gave $103,444 to Along Side Ministries in Phoenix and $65,000 to Ventura County Rescue Mission in Oxnard, two of its largest recent grants and examples of the mix of education, rescue-mission, and service-oriented work it backs. The same pattern shows up in California and neighboring states through grants to Wilderness Trails in Medford, Oregon; Spirit of Santa Paula in Santa Paula; and Harvest Home in Santa Monica. The foundation also supports programs tied to inner-city children, outdoor ministry, and community mission centers, suggesting a preference for nonprofits that combine direct service with faith-based formation. Across the recent grants list, recipients are mostly regional organizations in California, Arizona, and Oregon, with several organizations appearing more than once over multiple years. That repetition points to ongoing relationships rather than isolated project grants. The overall picture is of a funder concentrated on mission-driven education and basic-needs ministries, especially those with a local or regional footprint.
Faith-based rescue missions are a clear priority. Mabry Foundation gave $65,000 to Ventura County Rescue Mission in Oxnard for mission and education work, and it also supported Harvest Home in Santa Monica with $40,000 for the same general purpose. Youth outreach is another recurring theme: Phoenix Inner City Kids received $35,422 for missions and education, and Urban Promise in Canoga Park received $25,000 in 2023 and $15,000 in 2025. The foundation also backs outdoor and wilderness programming, with $61,100 to Wilderness Trails in Medford and $25,000 to Hume Lake Christian Camps in Fresno. Local mission centers appear as well, including City Center Ventura at $32,222 and Spirit of Santa Paula at $45,000, both tied to community-focused service.
Typical grants cluster in the mid-five-figure range: the 25th percentile is $10,000, the median is $14,000, and the 75th percentile is $27,500. The recent list shows repeated support to several organizations across different years, including Along Side Ministries, Wilderness Trails, Urban Promise, Harvest Home, and Agape House of Prescott, which suggests ongoing relationships rather than one-time awards. Mabry Foundation is a private foundation and does not fund individuals or make program-related investments. The recent grants list also shows a consistent program-oriented style, with awards described as mission or education support rather than capital projects.
