Type of Support

Overview

The Fichtenbaum Charitable Trust grant program supports a wide range of initiatives within specific areas of interest, including medical research (emphasizing cancer, heart disease, vision, and Myasthenia Gravis), education and research for children with mental or physical disabilities, and promoting children's education and exposure to the fine arts. Successful proposals for this grant are characterized by their uniqueness, necessity, and high priority for the charitable organizations applying. Aimed at projects that do not replicate existing services and are difficult to fund through other sources, these grants prioritize efforts that are clearly defined as worthwhile, important, and substantial. Grant amounts generally range from $10,000 to $100,000, with the possibility of larger multi-year commitments, and an average grant size of $35,000.
