Hudson
As our home base, the historic City of Hudson represents an important grantmaking priority for Morgan Foundation.
In 2025, Morgan Foundation teamed up with Peg's Foundation to create a donor advised fund at Hudson Community Foundation to make grants to organizations that contribute to the vibrant sense of community that makes Hudson a special place to live and work.
Hudson Community Foundation, $135,000
For the Morgan Family Fund 2025
Leadership Hudson, $2,500
To support leadership programming in Hudson through sponsorship of the Hudsonopoly project
Total: $137,500
Other Community
Burton D. Morgan Foundation periodically makes proactive grants to community organizations whose important work falls outside our mission-related grant focus. These grants are typically made once a year and are determined on a proactive basis by the Foundation's Trustees. We do not accept applications for our proactive community grantmaking and typically select a different group of recipient organizations each year.
