The Nicholas Family Foundation Trust focuses on major local/regional civic investments, concentrating its support on a small number of institutions that sustain community amenities and core services. Its largest and repeat grants support a conservatory/park district endowment and enhancements, while significant gifts also go to pediatric health care and broad community impact via United Way annual campaigns. The foundation favors capacity-building (endowments, annual campaigns) over many small awards.
Nicholas Family Foundation Trust C/o Lynn S Nicholas is marked by repeated six-figure support for a small set of local institutions, especially the Rockford Park District Foundation’s annual endowment for the Nicholas Conservatory and Gardens. That pattern, repeated in 2023, 2024, and 2025 at $500,000 each year, shows a preference for sustained operating and capital support rather than one-time grants. The foundation also backs pediatric health care in Milwaukee, including Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin, and it has made repeated annual-campaign gifts to organizations working on childhood cancer, community health, and family services. Alongside those larger commitments, the grant list shows support for cultural, recreational, and wellness infrastructure such as the Milwaukee Public Museum, Kathy’s House, and the Samaritan Family Wellness Foundation. The result is a grant portfolio centered on local institutions that provide visible community benefits, with a mix of endowment support, annual campaigns, and capital campaigns. Recurring grants appear across multiple years, especially for the conservatory, children’s health, and cancer-related work.
Pediatric care is a clear priority. In 2025, the foundation gave $400,000 to Children’s Hospoital of Wi Foundation for pediatric patient care, research and teaching, and it made similar annual-campaign gifts of $250,000 in both 2023 and 2024 to Children’s Hospital & Health System Foundation for the same purpose. Cancer-related giving appears in several places as well: Macc Fund received $237,000 in 2023, 2024, and 2025 for research, effective treatment, and cure for childhood cancer, while Uw Foundation - Guarding Against Cancer received $100,000 in 2023, 2024, and 2025 for cancer elimination through research, education, advocacy, and service. The foundation also supports wellness services through The Samaritan Family Wellness Foundation Inc, including therapy at UW Madison, and it gave $100,000 in 2025 to Prevent Blindness Wisconsin for vision and eye safety.
Typical grants cluster in the five-figure range, with p25 at $25,000, a median of $30,000, and p75 at $75,000. The grant list also includes repeated six-figure and half-million-dollar awards, showing a portfolio that mixes smaller annual-campaign support with larger recurring commitments. Recurrence is a strong feature: several recipients appear in multiple years, including the conservatory endowment, children’s health, and cancer-focused organizations. The foundation is a private family foundation trust, and it makes grants locally rather than nationally. It also funds individuals.
