The Rose Foundation makes a very small number of modest grants and appears to operate mainly through intermediaries rather than funding direct program work. Most of its recent giving is unrestricted general operating support to pooled funds or community foundations, suggesting the foundation prefers to route philanthropy through donor-advised funds and local community foundations instead of direct project grants.
Focus Areas
Donor-advised / pooled charitable funds (pass-through giving)General operating support for community foundationsUnrestricted support to intermediary philanthropic organizations
Who They Fund
donor-advised funds (e.g., Fidelity Charitable / Lupine Fund Co)community foundations (e.g., Triangle Community Foundation)pooled charitable funds / fiscal sponsors
Giving Approach
Highly concentrated and limited: two grants in the record totaling $22.8K, with ~88% directed to a donor-advised/pooled fund and the remainder to a community foundation. No evidence of program-specific grants or a broad diversified portfolio; giving appears intermediary-focused and ad hoc.
