The Foundation is committed to addressing systemic disparities around race, place and income. In particular, we are focused on the Black and Latinx populations, as well as closing the opportunity gap for urban residents. We strive to enhance partnerships between philanthropy, nonprofits and the corporate community, informed by residents’ lived experiences.
