We believe in creating stronger, more prosperous communities. As such, the efforts of the Foundation will be aligned around the following areas of impact. We are especially interested in programs that exhibit an innovative approach to serving needs not already being met.
We seek to support those who inspire passion about learning. This may include programs that enhance education or deepen student aspirations. Efforts focusing on economics, finance, communications, business and public speaking are of particular interest.
Better health is the pathway to building stronger communities. Health care organizations or non-profits that are bringing new thinking to the advancement of physical and mental health for all ages are welcome to apply.
Quality of life is made better for all by those who provide vital services. The Foundation will support volunteer and other organizations that bolster the social infrastructure, including fire departments, rescue squads and health-care services.
A form of economic enterprise, arts and culture bring people together across cultures and ages. Whether in the form of education, entertainment, or the creation of platforms that showcase local talent, we believe in their importance.
Productive communities benefit from numerous forms of engagement beyond work or the classroom. Programs that provide facilities for and promote athletic and recreation teams and programs may be eligible.
