About Moss Adams Foundation
The Moss Adams Foundation concentrates almost all of its giving on supporting corporate/employee giving infrastructure and a small amount of targeted higher-education support. The bulk of its funds go to the American Online Giving Foundation (Benevity) to enable workplace and platform-based philanthropy, while a single modest grant supports Washington State University's accounting department, reflecting an interest in professional/accounting education linked to the foundation's institutional mission.

About Moss Adams Foundation
A defining feature of Moss Adams Foundation’s recent grantmaking is its heavy use of workplace giving infrastructure: the largest grants in the file go to American Online Giving Foundation for Benevity Giving, including $806,906 in 2023 and $714,226 in 2024. That pattern places employee-directed philanthropy at the center of the foundation’s work rather than standalone charitable programming. Alongside that platform support, the foundation maintains a narrower set of direct grants tied to accounting education and professional development. Washington State University received support of its accounting department in 2023 and 2025, and California State University Northridge, California State University Chico, California Polytechnic State University, Santa Clara University, and University of Houston also appear as accounting-department grantees. The foundation’s recent record also includes targeted support for the CAQ Accounting+ program, the PhD Project Association, and Beta Alpha Psi’s Project Run With It, all of which connect to accounting pathways and student development. Disaster and environmental support appears in the list as well, including a 2025 disaster relief grant to the American National Red Cross in San Francisco.
What Moss Adams Foundation Funds
Accounting education is one of the clearest direct program areas in the foundation’s grants. Washington State University received $150,050 in 2025 for support of its accounting department, while California State University Chico was awarded $50,000 in 2025 for the same purpose. The same theme appears at California Polytechnic State University, Santa Clara University, and University of Houston through accounting-department support. The foundation also backs accounting career pathways at a broader pipeline level through a $575,000 grant to CAQ Accounting+ and a $25,000 grant to The PhD Project Association in 2025. Employee-connected philanthropy is another recurring thread: Beta Alpha Psi received grants for Project Run With It, including $78,693 in 2024 and $52,860 in 2023. The foundation also made a 2025 disaster relief grant to the American National Red Cross in San Francisco.
How Moss Adams Foundation Gives
Moss Adams Foundation’s typical grant size is $2,500 at both the 25th percentile and median, with a 75th percentile of $9,000. That distribution sits alongside a small number of much larger grants, which are dominated by Benevity Giving payments to American Online Giving Foundation. The grant list shows recurring support across multiple years for several recipients, including American Online Giving Foundation, Washington State University, Beta Alpha Psi, California State University Northridge, and The PhD Project Association. It is a regular funder and funds individuals. The active programs indicate that some support is employee-nominated or matching-based, and the grant records do not show unsolicited applications.
