    About Klarman Family Foundation

    The Klarman Family Foundation makes large, strategic grants focused on strengthening democratic infrastructure, climate mitigation, and biomedical research. Their giving is directed toward a small number of high-impact intermediaries and research institutions that can deploy capital at scale—often via repeat multi‑million dollar awards over multiple years—rather than many small local grants. Grants suggest an emphasis on pragmatic solutions: voter engagement and election integrity projects, forest/climate initiatives, and cutting-edge scientific research. While Boston‑based, their funding supports national and global intermediary organizations and consortia.

    About Klarman Family Foundation

    The Klarman Family Foundation’s giving shows a clear pattern of multi-million-dollar support for a small set of intermediaries and research institutions. One of its largest recent commitments was a $5 million grant to Election Trust Initiative LLC for healthy democracy work, followed by additional $5 million awards in other years to the same entity. That concentration appears elsewhere too: the foundation has also backed ClimateWorks Foundation with $4 million grants tied to the Forests for People and Climate initiative, and it has returned to Broad Institute Inc with several large awards for scientific research, including work on anorexia nervosa genetics. The foundation uses these grants to support collaborations, research resources, and large-scale civic programs rather than many small awards. Its recent portfolio also includes climate mitigation, election infrastructure, and biomedical discovery, with some grants flowing through fiscal sponsors and collaborative vehicles. Across that mix, the foundation’s style is consistent: substantial, targeted funding for organizations that can operate at national or international scale.

    What Klarman Family Foundation Funds

    In democratic engagement and election infrastructure, the foundation funded Election Trust Initiative LLC with $5 million for healthy democracy work, and it also gave $3.5 million to New Venture Fund for civic participation. On the climate side, it awarded $4 million to ClimateWorks Foundation for the Forests for People and Climate Initiative, plus another $3 million to Stichting European Climate Foundation for international efforts to transition to clean energy. In biomedical research, Broad Institute Inc received $3,601,772 for research into the genetics of anorexia nervosa, while Israel Science Foundation got $3,352,638 for research grants within the Israel Precision Medicine Partnership. The foundation also supports education and community development in Israel and Massachusetts, including a $2.8 million grant to The SchwartzReisman Science Education Center Rehovot for Arab Israeli advancement.

    How Klarman Family Foundation Gives

    Typical grant size sits at $25,000 at the 25th percentile, $100,000 at the median, and $250,000 at the 75th percentile, but the recent grants list shows that the foundation also makes repeated multi-million-dollar awards through its major programs. It is a Regular Funder, not a DAF, and it funds individuals. The pattern is repetitive over time: several recipients appear in multiple years, including Election Trust Initiative LLC, ClimateWorks Foundation, Broad Institute Inc, and Combined Jewish Philanthropies of Greater Boston Inc. Core channels are annual and multi-year operating, project, and capital support. Some program areas accept unsolicited applications, including the Community Capital Fund, the Instrument Fund, and the Massachusetts Crescendo Fund; other major grantmaking areas are by invitation only.
