We fund nonprofits that help children and families access the education and support they need to thrive.
We take a thoughtful, hands-on approach to grantmaking, providing holistic wraparound support to grantees. Every organization we support is carefully evaluated across four key areas:
Strong, mission-driven leaders and Boards who are deeply connected to their communities and committed to long-term impact.
Clear, measurable goals—and a track record of achieving them. We value data-informed programs that create real results for kids and families.
A focused mission, strong internal practices, and a healthy culture that supports staff and strengthens community partnerships.
Sustainable organizations with sound financial management and a diverse base of support.
Lone Pine Foundation has awarded over $134M+ in grants to nonprofits located in communities where team members live and work. Current grants are awarded to nonprofit organizations in Fairfield County, Connecticut; Westchester County, New York; and New York City.
"Your commitment to the wellbeing of our team means more than words can express. This grant is not just an investment in our staff, but it's a reflection of your belief in the power of people to drive impact when they are supported, valued, and well. With your help, we can continue to nurture a team that is energized, resilient, and fully equipped to serve our students and communities with excellence."
