Providing Charitable Funding to the Community
For almost 40 years, the most vulnerable members of the community have been supported by the Scaife Family Foundation through charitable funding. Since its inception in 1985, the Foundation has provided more than $180 million in donations for non-profit programs. Originally founded in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, the Foundation's service area is not limited to any single geographical area within the United States. Historically, we consider South Florida and Western Pennsylvania first. All grants are determined by the Directors on a case-by-case basis.
We aim to help make the world a better place by continuing the legacy of generosity made possible by the Scaife Family. Our primary objective is to match the Foundation with non-profit organizations having similar interest areas and goals.
The Foundations offers grants in the form of general operating support and program support. Proposals for event sponsorship and endorsements, capital campaigns renovation, individuals and government agencies are typically declined.
