About William S. Abell Foundation

William S. Abell Foundation was set up in 1985 by William S. Abell and Patricia O'C. Abell. It mainly makes quarterly grants to help the hungry, intellectually disabled, homeless, abused women and children, and at-risk pregnant women who are delivering and caring for their infants. Grants typically do not exceed $25,000 and go to recipients in the District of Columbia and nearby Maryland counties. A generous bequest from Margaret Abell Powell greatly expanded the Foundation's resources, and part of it established a fund supporting certain ballet and theater activities.
