The Stanley L and Grace A Woofter Family Foundation focuses its modest grantmaking on a small number of regional recipients, concentrating support in eastern Ohio/western Pennsylvania. The foundation makes repeat, targeted awards—notably multiple grants to a single organization (NESFACE)—and also channels funding through the Community Foundation of Western Pennsylvania and Eastern Ohio to support local needs. Their approach suggests preference for local, place‑based philanthropy and sustaining a trusted set of partners rather than broad national giving.
Concentrated and targeted: few, mid‑sized grants with repeat funding to a handful of local partners; uses a community foundation as a vehicle for regional support.
The Stanley L and Grace a Woofter Family Foundation gives in a tight regional pattern, with repeated general-support awards to a small set of organizations in eastern Ohio and western Pennsylvania. Its recent record shows sustained backing for Nesface in Kinsman, Ohio, alongside the Community Foundation of Western PA and Eastern Ohio in Sharon, Pennsylvania, suggesting a preference for local intermediaries and place-based partners. The foundation’s grants are typically modest, but they recur across multiple years, which points to a steady support style rather than one-off project funding. General support is a consistent feature of the portfolio. In recent years, the foundation has supported community-serving organizations such as the Children’s Rehabilitation Center in Warren, Ohio, Hartford United Methodist in Hartford, Ohio, and Trumbull County Educ Service in Niles, Ohio. It also funds civic and social-welfare groups including Ntccf, the Animal Welfare League, Trumbull Mobile Meals, Warren Family Mission, and Kinsman Public Library. The overall pattern is localized, repeated, and centered on organizations that serve nearby communities.
A major thread in the foundation’s grantmaking is support for a local community-funding intermediary. It gave $15,000 in 2025, plus $5,000 in both 2023 and 2024, to the Community Foundation of Western PA and Eastern Ohio in Sharon, Pennsylvania. Another clear focus is sustained backing for one recurring partner. Nesface in Kinsman, Ohio received $15,000 in 2025, $15,000 in 2024, and $12,000 in 2023, all for general support. The foundation also funds health, education, and basic-needs services. Examples include $9,000 in 2025 to the Children’s Rehabilitation Center in Warren, Ohio; $4,000 in both 2024 and 2025 to Trumbull County Educ Service in Niles, Ohio; and $2,000 in 2024 and 2025 to Trumbull Mobile Meals in Warren, Ohio.
Grant sizes cluster at the small-to-midrange level, with a typical award of $1,000 at the 25th percentile, $2,000 at the median, and $5,000 at the 75th percentile. The recent record also includes larger recurring awards of $15,000 and $12,000, but most grants sit below that level. The foundation’s pattern is recurring rather than one-off: several recipients appear in multiple years, including Nesface, Children’s Rehabilitation Center, Hartford United Methodist, Trumbull County Educ Service, Kinsman Public Library, and Trumbull Mobile Meals. The available data also shows a family foundation structure with no program-related investments and no funding to individuals.
