The Leandro P Rizzuto Foundation
Between its 2021–2024 filings, The Leandro P Rizzuto Foundation made 104 grants to Florida organizations totaling $5,959,025 — median $20,000. 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.
Winnability verdict
Watch Our reading as of October 11, 2026, from filings through 2024.
- We could not find a website of theirs that describes an open process, and filing text alone can be years out of date. Confirm with the funder before writing.
- A real pattern, not a one-off: 25 grants in youth & family services on their Florida record ($1,471,500).
- Size the ask from their record: median grant $20,000, largest $799,000.
Deadline: No application deadline appears in the filings we have — confirm timing with the funder before planning a submission.
The verdict is our judgment from public filings — the funder’s own process statements are quoted where they exist, and funders make their own decisions. Verify with the funder before applying.
