The OB2 Foundation gives small, local grants concentrated on coastal community safety and stewardship. Their funding repeatedly supports municipal lifeguards and volunteer fire services in the Ocean Beach/Lavallette area, plus local environmental protection of Barnegat Bay and occasional support for collegiate philanthropic events. Grants are modest and targeted, suggesting a grassroots, hometown focus rather than broad national philanthropy.
Small number of modest-sized grants, often repeated to the same local recipients; highly geographically concentrated on coastal Lavallette/Ocean Beach community needs rather than diversified national giving.
