The Schrillo Family Foundation makes a small number of mid-sized, unrestricted charitable grants to local Southern California civic institutions — primarily public media, community healthcare, and performing arts. Their giving appears place-based (San Fernando Valley/Ventura County area) and supports visible community pillars rather than single-issue advocacy. Grants are general-purpose/charitable, suggesting flexible support for operating needs.
Concentrated, small portfolio: three mid-range charitable grants (~$12k–$15k each) to local nonprofit institutions in arts, health, and media; no evidence of multi-year or large flagship commitments or broad geographic diversification.
Notable grantees: KCET, Northridge Hospital Foundation, Thousand Oaks Philharmonic
The Schrillo Family Foundation gives in a tight set of recurring areas, with charitable support clustered around Southern California public media, healthcare, and performing arts. Among its recent grants, KCET in Burbank received $15,000 in 2025, matching a $15,000 grant to Northridge Hospital Foundation the same year. Thousand Oaks Philharmonic also appears repeatedly, including a $12,000 grant in 2025 and a $10,000 grant in 2023. That pattern points to a foundation that favors local institutions with broad community visibility rather than highly specialized projects. Its grants are generally unrestricted charitable awards, which suggests flexible operating support. The foundation also backed La Sierra University in Riverside with $10,000 in 2025, and New West Symphony in Thousand Oaks with grants in both 2023 and 2025. Beyond those anchors, the list includes health, arts, and community-serving organizations such as St. John’s Health Center, Hoag Hospital Foundation, and several rescue missions. The mix is consistent with a family foundation making place-based grants to civic institutions that serve everyday public needs.
Public media is one of the clearest themes in the foundation’s grant record. KCET in Burbank received $15,000 in 2025 and $8,000 in 2023, indicating recurring support for regional television and media. Healthcare is another area of emphasis. Northridge Hospital Foundation received $15,000 in 2025 and $10,000 in 2023, while Hoag Hospital Foundation in Newport Beach received $3,000 in 2025. St. John’s Health Center in Santa Monica also appears with a $5,000 grant in 2023. The arts show a similar pattern of repeat funding. Thousand Oaks Philharmonic received $12,000 in 2025 and $10,000 in 2023, and New West Symphony received $6,000 in 2023 followed by $5,650 in 2025. La Philharmonic in Hollywood received grants in both 2023 and 2025 as well.
Typical grants are modest to mid-sized: the 25th percentile is $1,000, the median is $1,500, and the 75th percentile is $2,500. That said, the foundation occasionally makes larger awards of $10,000 to $15,000 to established institutions. Several recipients appear in multiple years, including KCET, Northridge Hospital Foundation, Thousand Oaks Philharmonic, New West Symphony, La Sierra University, Los Angeles Mission, Union Rescue Mission, Hope of the Valley Rescue Mission, Fred Jordan Mission, and St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. The foundation funds charitable grants and does not fund individuals.
