The mission of the Wilkins Charitable Foundation, managed by Bank of America's Philanthropic Solutions, is to provide charitable grants to support medical research and social service agencies primarily within the Puget Sound region. The Foundation aims to fund initiatives focusing on cancer, heart disease, mental health issues, and support for the physically or mentally disabled, especially those who are low-income or destitute. It also prioritizes humanitarian services, particularly for abused women and children.
The Wilkins Charitable Foundation offers three grant cycles annually to qualified organizations within its funding priorities. These priorities include medical research in cancer, heart disease, and mental illness; support for individuals with physical or mental disabilities; and humanitarian services with an emphasis on aiding abused women and children. The Foundation provides single-year grants with an average size ranging from $2,000 to $5,000 and also considers multi-year grants for three-year terms under specific conditions. Multi-year funding is available to organizations that have previously received at least two single-year grants within five years and have not received a multi-year grant recently. Additionally, organizations are ineligible to reapply for two years after receiving three consecutive grants to ensure a wide distribution of funds.
