Its 2024 grant descriptions use the purpose “to help fight inequalities, injustice and intolerance in all its forms.” Grantees’ own descriptions show support for organizations working in areas including youth empowerment, community health, disability services, foster care, and support for people experiencing poverty, social injustice, or transition and crisis. These are the grantees’ stated missions, not a separate statement of the foundation’s mission.

For example, Free2Luv describes its work as empowering and uplifting youth through the arts. MATTER says it helps people launch projects that improve communities. Living Well Disability Services says it provides services to people impacted by disabilities. The Link says it works with youth and families to address poverty and social injustice, while Vivent Health describes its mission as ending HIV/AIDS through healthcare, social services, and prevention.
