To contribute to the communities in which we do business by supporting Education, Diversity, Environmental, and Health and Human Services initiatives.



Our Focus Areas

  • Education - Education is the Foundation's primary emphasis and includes innovative educational programs within public elementary, middle and secondary schools and public and private post-secondary schools. Programs involving math, science and technology are priority. This emphasis also includes educational programs that are conducted through other qualifying organizations (see grant information).


  • Diversity - In order to strengthen our communities, we believe in a strong commitment to programs that support diversity and strive to embrace and encourage the inclusion of diverse backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives.


  • Environment - Supporting environmental excellence is inherent and vital for the protection of our communities in which we live and play and helps promote economic growth.


  • Health and Human Services - Health and Human Services are programs whose goals better the health and welfare of our society. Grantmaking in this area will be made only to United Way.
