To honor the regenerative potential of business through meaningful philanthropy, mission-aligned investing, and advocacy; invest in solutions that take action on climate change, amplify human power, protect ecosystems, and build a more vibrant future.
Mighty Arrow Family Foundation’s recent giving is built around unrestricted, often multi-year support for mission-aligned organizations working on climate, food systems, land and water stewardship, and social justice. The largest recent grant in the file is a $100,000 general-support award to the CSU Foundation Paul Hudnut Impact MBA Fellowship in Fort Collins, paired with $75,000 to the Georgia Alliance Education Fund in Atlanta. Those grants fit a pattern of funding organizations that combine systems change with place-based work, rather than narrow project-only awards. The foundation’s active programs reinforce that approach. Its Mighty Partner Project is described as supporting mission-aligned organizations working on climate action, ecosystem protection, community resilience, and regenerative business, while the general grantmaking program is framed as catalytic support for early-stage and place-based organizations. Recent awards also show attention to conservation, regenerative agriculture, and local advocacy through grantees such as Water Foundation, Glen Canyon Institute-Returning Rapids Project, and One Arizona. The overall picture is of a family foundation using flexible capital to back organizations advancing environmental and social outcomes across the western United States and beyond.
Climate and ecosystem work appear throughout the grant list. In 2025, Mighty Arrow Family Foundation gave $50,000 to Water Foundation for general support, and it also funded Glen Canyon Institute-Returning Rapids Project with $50,000 for general support. Those awards align with the foundation’s stated interest in climate action and ecosystem protection. Food systems and land stewardship are another clear thread. In 2023, the foundation awarded $60,000 to Regenerative Agriculture Foundation and $57,000 to National Young Farmers Coalition, both for general support. It also granted $35,000 to Quivira Coalition and $50,000 to Kitchen Table Advisors in 2025, reflecting sustained attention to agricultural resilience and stewardship. Its social justice and community-resilience interests show up as well. The foundation gave $75,000 to Georgia Alliance Education Fund and $50,000 to The Marshall Project, each for general support, alongside grants to organizations working on advocacy and civic infrastructure.

Typical grants cluster tightly around a $25,000 median, with a p25 of $15,000 and a p75 of $25,000. The recent list also includes several $50,000 awards, plus a smaller set of $30,000 and $35,000 grants. That profile suggests a steady core of mid-sized general-support grants with some larger anchor awards. The foundation is a regular funder, not a DAF, and it does not fund individuals or make program-related investments. Its grantmaking appears recurring across years: organizations such as Theodore Roosevelt Conservation Partnership appear in both 2023 and 2025, indicating continued relationships rather than one-off gifts. The programs described emphasize unrestricted and general operating support, often for early-stage or place-based organizations.
Grantmaking is regional rather than national, with the strongest concentration in the West. California is the top state by grant count, while 44% of grants go to recipients in Colorado, the foundation’s HQ state. Recipient cities in the recent list include Fort Collins, Berkeley, Denver, Los Angeles, Sacramento, and Upper Lake in California; outside the West, awards also reached Atlanta, New York, Raleigh, Las Vegas, Salt Lake City, Tempe, and Washington, DC. All recipient-country records in the file are in the United States.
