Sixsibs Foundation Inc
Milwaukee, WI · EIN 99-0972777. Reported 77 grants totalling $1,112,296 to 77 organizations across tax years 2024. This foundation did not tell the IRS it funds only preselected organizations.
Does this foundation accept applications?
Yes -- on its own tax return. Form 990-PF asks every private foundation whether it makes grants only to organizations it selects itself. Of the 91,758 foundations in our data that made a grant and answered, 78% said yes -- and applying to those is wasted effort. Sixsibs Foundation Inc did not check that box on its most recent filing, which puts it in the minority that is at least open to being approached.
How big are its grants?
The median grant is $5,000. Half of everything it gave fell between $1,000 and $10,000; the smallest was $100 and the largest $150,000. If you are asking for materially more than the top of that range, you are asking the wrong foundation.
Every organization it funded
This is the complete list from its filings, largest first. Years funded is the number of separate tax years in which the organization received money -- more than one means a real relationship rather than a one-off.

What the money was for
Taken verbatim from the purpose field of its filings. This is the closest thing to a statement of what this foundation cares about, in its own words.
- Mmac Community Support Foundation
THE SIXSIBS FOUNDATION MAKES CONTRIBUTIONS FOR THE GENERAL CHARITABLE ACTIVITIES OF THE RECIPIENTS LISTED. THE FOUNDATION HAS NOT DESIGNATED THESE CONTRIBUTIONS FOR SPECIFIC PURPOSES.
What kind of organizations it funds
By the recipient's own IRS classification, for the 38 grants where we could identify the organization. These are assigned categories, not our guesses.
Where its money goes
Foundations concentrate geographically far more than their mission statements suggest. 93% of this one's giving went to organizations in Wisconsin. If you are outside its footprint, that matters more than how well your programme fits.

Funders that support the same organizations
These funders gave to organizations this one also funded -- some private foundations, some community foundations and other grantmaking charities. Shared grantees are the strongest available signal that two funders have overlapping priorities, and a funder already backing your peers is a far warmer prospect than one that merely lists your cause.
How to approach this foundation
- Check you are its size. The median grant is $5,000. Asking for ten times that is the most common way small organizations waste a submission.
- Check you are in its geography. Its giving is concentrated in Wisconsin.
- Read the recipient list above for organizations like yours. If nothing on it resembles your work, that is a real answer, and a cheap one to get.
- Look up the current filing before writing. The 990-PF names the foundation's officers and, where one exists, its application procedure. We link it below.
Where these numbers come from
Everything above is taken from Sixsibs Foundation Inc's own Form 990-PF filings, which the IRS publishes in bulk. We used 1 return. Nothing here is scraped, inferred, or estimated.
Address of record on the latest return: 195 S Rite Hite Way, Milwaukee, WI, 53204. This is the address the foundation gave the IRS; many small foundations file through an accountant or a bank trust department, so it may not be where post to a programme officer should go.
