Worthington Family Foundation Grant Program

The Worthington Family Foundation Grant Program supports nonprofit organizations dedicated to the arts and environmental initiatives benefiting children and young adults. Established in honor of Betty J. O'Leary, this foundation aims to carry on her legacy of intellectual curiosity and community service. Through its annual funding, it seeks to empower organizations that foster creativity and environmental stewardship, ensuring a positive impact on future generations.

The Worthington Family Foundation is a small family foundation created to distribute funds annually to nonprofit institutions. We fund organizations that support the arts and environmental stewardship to benefit children through young adults.
The Worthington Family Foundation was created from the legacy of Betty J. O'Leary (1923 - 2008). Betty married but never had children. She was a very energtic person and was well-read and intellectually curious. She asked her sister, the late Ruth M. (Miesel) Worthington and the children of Ruth and her late husband William R. Worthington to create the Worthington Family Foundation upon her passing.
