What is the typical grant size at Praxis Inc?

The typical grant size is $50,000, and the recent distribution is flat: p25, median, and p75 are all $50,000. That lines up with the foundation’s accelerator programs, where nonprofit fellows commonly receive a $50,000 grant at completion.

Does Praxis Inc accept unsolicited applications?

Yes, several active programs do. The U.S. Nonprofit Accelerator, Africa Accelerator nonprofit track, Praxis Nonprofit Accelerator (2027 cohort), and Praxis Gatherings scholarships all list unsolicited access or contact-based scholarship requests. Other programs, such as the Singapore gathering, are invitation-only.

What kinds of organizations does Praxis Inc support?

It supports early-stage nonprofit and social venture founders, plus mission-driven organizations working through accelerator and fellowship models. Recent grants went to organizations in nonprofit leadership, venture development, and mission-driven impact investing, alongside a broader focus list that includes education, healthcare, economic development, technology, legal and justice, and church/ministry.

Where does Praxis Inc give most often?

California is the top state by grant count in the recent data. The recipient list includes multiple California cities, including Menlo Park, Sierra Madre, East Palo Alto, Costa Mesa, and Westlake Village. New York is the headquarters state, but only 9% of grants went there.

Are Praxis Inc grants recurring or mostly one-time awards?

The recent record shows awards in both 2024 and 2025, with repeated $50,000 grants across multiple cohorts. That suggests an ongoing accelerator-based pattern rather than a one-time grant round. The foundation’s program structure also points to recurring cohort cycles.

About Praxis

Praxis Inc. centers its grantmaking on early-stage nonprofit and social venture founders, with a recurring $50,000 grant tied to its accelerator programs. Across the recent grants list, that pattern shows up in support for ventures such as Scholars of Finance in Menlo Park and Thrive Funds Inc in Indianapolis, each receiving $50,000 in 2025 for nonprofit fellow accelerator support. The foundation’s approach is closely linked to venture-building: its active programs pair mentoring, cohort learning, community access, and post-program support with unrestricted grant capital or capital allocations. That mix points to a funder investing in organizational formation as much as in discrete projects. A separate 2025 grant to Impact foundation in New York, NY for charitable capital for mission-driven impact investments shows that Praxis Inc also uses philanthropic capital in ways that connect founders, funders, and mission-driven enterprise. The recent record includes both 2024 and 2025 grants, indicating that this is an ongoing grantmaking program rather than a one-off funding round. The supported organizations operate across education, healthcare, economic development, technology, media and entertainment, food and agriculture, legal and justice, art and design, real estate, and church and ministry.

What Praxis Funds

Praxis Inc’s most visible cause area is nonprofit venture development. In 2025, it gave $50,000 to Hildegard College in Costa Mesa for nonprofit fellow accelerator support, and the same grant size appears across other accelerator awards. The foundation also backs mission-driven capital deployment: Impact foundation in New York received $99,929 for charitable capital for mission-driven impact investments. Another theme is leadership development through cohort-based formation. Arrabon in Richmond, VA received $50,000 in 2025 for the nonprofit fellow accelerator, while Meto in Washington, DC received a $50,000 nonprofit accelerator grant in 2024 to further its mission. The grant record also reaches into social problem-solving ventures; Institute for American Poilicing Reform in Lebanon, TN received a 2024 accelerator grant for work addressing major societal issues.

How Praxis Gives

Praxis Inc’s recent grant sizes are tightly clustered: the 25th percentile, median, and 75th percentile are all $50,000. That matches the accelerator model in its program descriptions, where nonprofit fellows typically receive a $50,000 grant at completion. The recent record suggests repeated funding across years, with grants appearing in both 2024 and 2025. It is a regular funder rather than a donor-advised fund or program-related-investment vehicle. The foundation is national in scope, and its programs accept unsolicited applications in several cases, including the U.S. nonprofit accelerator and Africa accelerator.
