The program's primary target beneficiaries are organizations located in Arizona that serve various populations in need. The "impact goals" are to alleviate suffering and improve the quality of life for individuals experiencing homelessness, those requiring indigent healthcare, and youth participating in various programs. While programs operated by schools and youth sports leagues typically fall under other grant programs, the broader human services category ensures a wide reach. The exclusion of certain funding areas like annual appeals, capital campaigns, and endowments further defines the scope of their intended impact, emphasizing direct program support.

Additionally, other human services requests will be considered, demonstrating a flexible yet targeted approach. This indicates a strategic priority on immediate and direct community intervention rather than long-term infrastructural or endowment building. The focus on short-term, impactful projects with a one-year completion timeline suggests a theory of change centered on addressing pressing community issues through focused, measurable interventions.

The application process itself mandates the submission of detailed information, including an Agency Overview, Board of Directors Roster, Financial Statements, Program/Project Timeline, Use of Funds Description, and Outcome Measurements. This rigorous reporting requirement underscores the foundation's commitment to understanding the tangible impact of its grants, aligning with a strategic approach that values transparency and demonstrable results in its philanthropic endeavors.
