Our Mission and Guiding Philosophy

The Mission of the George Family Foundation is to foster wholeness in mind, body, spirit, and community in order to enhance the development of human potential.

Our Guiding Philosophy is to invest in initiatives consistent with our deepest values, to promote ethics and character formation, and to sustain and grow the communities that have nurtured us.

We strive for a spiritual reciprocity in our giving that honors those who are actively doing the work we consider vital. Understanding that the most urgent societal problems are not readily resolved, we encourage collaboration and partnership.

We favor efforts that have transformative impact, that serve the larger vision we share, and that have the potential for leverage and sustainability.
