The Nutt Family Foundation concentrates its support on a mix of independent/preparatory schools, pediatric healthcare institutions, and regional environmental/community causes — particularly organizations in the Northeast and Florida. Grants are typically unrestricted/ general purpose and sized in the mid-five-figure range, indicating preference for meaningful, single-year gifts to established nonprofits rather than many small awards. The foundation appears to combine interest in education and child health with a distinct environmental/community philanthropy in Florida.
A $50,000 grant to The Everglades Foundation is the largest recent award on file for Nutt Family Foundation and points to a portfolio that mixes environmental work with education and pediatric health. The foundation’s recent grants show a consistent pattern of general charitable purpose support to established nonprofits, often in the Northeast and Florida. In 2024, it also gave $32,500 to Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and $17,000 to The Haverford School, illustrating how it moves across child health and independent-school philanthropy. Earlier grants include $35,500 to Miami Childrens Hospital Foundation Inc and $33,333 to Springside Chestnut Hill Academy, reinforcing the same multi-sector profile. Its giving is not limited to one type of institution: hospitals, preparatory schools, community foundations, and conservation groups all appear in the recent record. The result is a funder profile centered on discretionary support for organizations serving children, students, and regional public-interest needs.
In environmental giving, the foundation awarded $50,000 to The Everglades Foundation for general charitable purposes, tying its largest recent gift to Florida conservation. In pediatric health, it gave $32,500 to Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and $35,500 to Miami Childrens Hospital Foundation Inc, showing support for children's health institutions in two different states. Education is another clear thread: Springside Chestnut Hill Academy received $33,333, and The Haverford School received $17,000, both for general charitable purposes. The record also includes regional community support, such as $15,000 to Ocean Reef Community Foundation, which places the foundation in a broader local-giving role beyond schools and hospitals.
Grant sizes cluster in the mid-range, with p25 at $2,000, a median of $5,417, and p75 at $17,000. The foundation still makes occasional larger awards, including a $50,000 grant, but most recent gifts sit below that level. Recipients can appear in multiple years: The Haverford School, Camp Onaway, and The Rumsay Hall School each received more than one grant across 2023 and 2024. The foundation is a regular funder rather than a DAF, and it does not make program-related investments. Recent awards are listed as general charitable purpose support, suggesting flexible use rather than tightly restricted project funding.
