The Batchelor Foundation Inc
Between its 2021–2023 filings, The Batchelor Foundation Inc made 876 grants to Florida organizations totaling $63,745,400 — 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 2023 is the newest year on public record — giving patterns persist, but always confirm current priorities with the funder.
Winnability verdict

- Checked on their own website 2026-10-01: new requests are by invitation only, so a cold application is not the door. The route in is relationship-building through organizations they already fund.
- A real pattern, not a one-off: 101 grants in youth & family services on their Florida record ($4,755,000).
- Size the ask from their record: median grant $25,000, largest $4,900,000.
Deadline: Deadline, per their filing: “THE FULLY COMPLETED FORMAL APPLICATION MUST BE SUBMITTED ONLINE THROUGH OUR GRANT PORTAL.”
