Glenn W Bailey Charitable Trust
Between its 2022–2024 filings, Glenn W Bailey Charitable Trust made 111 grants to Florida organizations totaling $10,483,600 — median $25,000. Here is what they actually funded, from their IRS 990-PF filings. A note on dates: 990-PF filings become public one to two years after the fiscal year they cover, so 2024 is the newest year on public record — giving patterns persist, but always confirm current priorities with the funder.
