About Sacred Heart Benedictine Foundation
The Sacred Heart Benedictine Foundation directs virtually all of its giving to Catholic Benedictine institutions, concentrating large gifts to support the infrastructure and mission of local Benedictine communities. Grants are explicitly religious in purpose and appear targeted to sustain convent/monastic operations and affiliated charitable activities, primarily in the foundation's local or regional context. The foundation's pattern suggests institutional support (likely endowment or major capital funding) rather than broad-based programmatic philanthropy.
