Giving Categories
Arts & Culture. Artistic expressions of culture -- past, realized, and hoped for -- organizations that add exponentially to the education of ourselves, others, and our future generations. We give grants that foster the creation and sharing of new art as well as the preservation of traditional art forms. Our goal is to enrich our world by broadening the access to art and culture, and to encourage the involvement of new and diverse audiences.
Environment. We value the health of the environment, and support natural resource management and strategies that balance conservation and sustainability. We focus on restoration and preservation in the areas of sustenance in alternative energies, clean water, clean air, natural habitats, and green spaces.
Health & Human Services. We focus on health and wellness as a means to prevent and eliminate disease and illness. We support organizations that are dedicated to overcoming physical, social, and emotional disorders that encumber society; and which provide superb care to the current victims of these ailments.
Human Rights. We support advocacy, protection efforts, and educational opportunities that focus on the full range of human rights nationally and abroad. We support organizations that address the most vulnerable issues in trafficking, torture, gender-based violence, asylum, and immigration. We focus on economic, cultural, and social issues, as well as civil and political rights.
Hunger & Shelter. Food and shelter are two primal needs in life, yet our world’s population struggles to find both. We sponsor programs that provide solutions to the eradication of hunger and homelessness; that focus on the sustainability of access to food, shelter, clothing, and medical supplies. Priority is given to projects that meet the most basic needs of those with the fewest resources.
Women & Children. Women & children continue to be among the most vulnerable of populations in society. We grant organizations that protect and empower women and children, and provide access to meet their physical, emotional, educational, professional and health-related needs.
Beyond the Box. We are excited about innovative, grass-roots solutions to ongoing problems that create positive and sustainable change toward the advancement of humanity. We recognize organizations that look through a new lens to solve old problems.
