About Vincent Genovese Memorial Foundation
The Vincent Genovese Memorial Foundation concentrates its giving on a small number of targeted causes, with a strong emphasis on cancer research and patient support alongside local social services and first-responder support. Most dollars have gone to a repeat grantee focused on cancer (Connecticut Cancer Foundation/Sloan-Kettering), while remaining grants support local needs in Fort Worth such as senior nutrition and fire service resources. Grants include program support, patient services, and capital/campaign contributions, indicating both operating and one-time project priorities.

About Vincent Genovese Memorial Foundation
Cancer research and patient support sit at the center of the Vincent Genovese Memorial Foundation’s recent giving, with repeated support directed to the Connecticut Cancer Foundation for Memorial Sloan-Kettering Hospital. That pattern stands alongside a second, equally clear thread: local assistance for Fort Worth and Tarrant County organizations serving older adults, food-insecure households, and people needing direct community support. The foundation’s recent grants show a mix of operating support, campaign funding, and program-specific gifts, suggesting a flexible approach rather than a single grant type. Beyond cancer, the foundation has backed Meals on Wheels of Tarrant County, Tarrant Area Food Bank, and other local service providers. It has also funded child camperships, scholarships, anti-sex trafficking work, and assistance for firefighters and other public safety personnel. Those grants point to a small portfolio of causes with a strong local emphasis and a recurring interest in both direct services and targeted projects.

It also provided $20,000 in 2024 and $15,000 in 2023 to Tarrant Area Food Bank, again for general operating support.

How Vincent Genovese Memorial Foundation Gives
Typical grants are modest to mid-sized, with a p25 of $2,500, a median of $5,000, and a p75 of $8,325. The recent record includes several repeated awards to the same organizations across multiple years, especially in cancer-related and local-service areas, which suggests ongoing relationships rather than one-time gifts. The foundation gives through a mix of general operating support, restricted project support, and campaign or endowment-style funding. It also funds individuals, and it does not make program-related investments.
