The Bolger Foundation recently received an email update on Bolger House, which serves as the admissions and orientation center as well as a reception venue for Northfield Mount Hermon School. The author of the email, a longtime member of the NMH family, also included two snapshots of the gracefully aging edifice.
The Bolger Foundation commends God’s Kitchen on using the proceeds of their own fundraising plus the foundation’s matching challenge grant to purchase their new headquarters in Palatka, FL. The nonprofit delivers 1200+ nutritious hot meals each month to homebound and/or food-insecure Putnam County senior citizens.
Fall 2022 challenge grant recipient God’s Kitchen has more than met their required fundraising quota of $25,000. Having raised $27,310 altogether, the faith-based nonprofit organization will now receive $25,000 in matching funds from The Bolger Foundation.

This past year has been pivotal for The Bolger Foundation. New trustees brought fresh energy and perspective to the board and foundation. Furthermore, we are now among the 1 in 10 US foundations that have their own website. TheBolgerFoundation.org features an online application form and blog. In addition, our clearly defined mission and direction enabled The Bolger Foundation to give more than $1 million to 14 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations in 2022. We look forward to expanding our outreach in 2023.
The Bolger Foundation is pleased to announce the results of its June 1-September 1, 2022, funding cycle. Nine (501)(c)(3) organizations were approved to receive a total of $757,500.
