    About Madison Foundation

    A large 2024 grant to The Rendon Group in Boston, Massachusetts stands out in The Madison Foundation’s recent record, but most of the foundation’s giving is closer to home and centered on Madison residents. The Madison Foundation supports organizations and public agencies that serve the Town of Madison through community grantmaking, scholarship funds, and partnership-based programs. Its recent grants show a mix of direct support for local needs and targeted awards tied to schools and community services. In 2024, Daniel Hand High School received support for scholarships, while Madison Community Services received funding to stock the food pantry. Another major line of work is helping Madison Youth & Family Services support needy Madison residents, alongside other place-based assistance for food, shelter, and basic needs. The foundation also administers scholarship and scholastic award funds for students in Madison Public Schools and Daniel Hand High School, making education support a recurring part of its portfolio. Across these programs, the foundation combines discretionary grants, donor-directed funds, and named scholarship funds.

    What Madison Foundation Funds

    Basic needs and emergency assistance are a visible part of The Madison Foundation’s work. In 2024, Madison Youth & Family Services received $25,000 to support needy Madison residents, following a $12,000 grant in 2023 for the same purpose. Food security also appears in the recent record: Madison Community Services received $39,700 in 2024 to stock the food pantry, after a $38,350 award in 2023 for the same need. Education support is another core area. Daniel Hand High School received $41,100 in 2024 for scholarships, and the same school received $32,600 in 2023 for scholarships. The foundation also gives to school-based prevention work, including a $10,000 grant to the Treasurer City of New Haven for drug free schools in Madison.

    How Madison Foundation Gives

    The Madison Foundation’s typical grants cluster around a modest local-giving range: the 25th percentile is $10,500, the median is $28,800, and the 75th percentile is $39,362. Recent awards also show repeated support to the same organizations across multiple years, including Madison Community Services, Madison Youth & Family Services, and Daniel Hand High School. That pattern fits a foundation with ongoing local programs rather than one-off project-only giving. The foundation uses several channels: discretionary and town partnership grants, donor-directed grants, scholarship funds, and a general community grant program. Some programs accept unsolicited applications, including the community grant program and town partnership grants, while donor-advised scholarship-related funds do not.
