What We Fund

All of our focus areas are interrelated, in service of our overarching mission to foster wholeness in mind, body, spirit, and community by developing authentic leaders and supporting transformative programs serving the common good.

We believe in whole-person health and wellbeing that nurtures all aspects of our humanity — mind, body, spirit, and community.

We believe that authentic leaders are people of the highest integrity who are committed to building enduring organizations, have a deep sense of genuine purpose, and are true to their core values.

We believe it is imperative — and a privilege — to give back to the communities that have nurtured our family and others.

We believe that open-hearted spirituality and an intentionally developed inner life build resilience, love and compassion for all people, and a more peaceful world.

We believe that natural spaces are vital to the health and wellbeing of individuals, local communities, and the common good — and that people who feel connected to the outdoors will actively protect our shared natural resources.

We believe that youth who thrive and develop their innate talents are best able to positively impact their families, communities, and society.

A distinct fund within the George Family Foundation, the Next Generation Fund seeks to catalyze youth in our communities to explore their full potential by fostering creativity, skills, self-awareness, and resilience.
