While the Foundation has a broad charter that does not exclude any particular type of charity from consideration for financial support, it has typically made the majority of its grants to support children, promote liberty, advance medicine, and assist the underprivileged.
Our society’s future is largely dependent on how we love and nurture our children. Of special concern to the Foundation are those children who fall through the cracks or are marginalized. Recognizing the obstacles that such children face, from learning difficulties to violence, the Foundation has helped fund programs which seek to improve these children’s living and educational environments and gives them resources to overcome challenges. The Foundation has supported several counseling and group home organizations, such as The Recovery Alliance, Youth Home, The National Center for Children with Learning Disabilities, and Dana’s House. In addition, the Foundation has awarded scholarships for secondary, post-secondary, and nontraditional education to students who demonstrate financial need, academic credentials, leadership ability, and intangible qualities.
The Foundation supports organizations which actively and effectively challenge the status quo by helping ordinary people fight unfair laws and procedures promulgated by federal, state, and local governments. The Institute for Justice has been a leader in this field.
Medicine has limitless potential to benefit humankind. The Foundation has supported several projects regarding new medical procedures, vaccines, and cures. It played a modest role in funding construction of the Arkansas Children’s Research Institute, which houses research laboratories and testing facilities exclusively dedicated to developing treatment strategies for diseases and disorders affecting children. It also funded a promising team at Wayne State University as it pursued research into cancer therapies. The Foundation’s involvement in medicine includes direct care programs such as the Haven Trust, a London-based aftercare facility for victims of breast cancer and their loved ones, Presbyterian Village, a nursing home, and the Hospice Foundation of Arkansas.
Since its early years, the Foundation has taken a keen interest in the plight of the American homeless population, with a focus on material and spiritual sustenance to those who need it most. The Foundation has supported organizations that meet specific needs like St. Bartholomew’s Church breakfast program and the Legal Action Center for the Homeless, complete programs for homeless and near-homeless individuals and families like Our House, and advocacy groups like the New York City Coalition Against Hunger. The Foundation firmly believes that lifting up the economically disadvantaged is a necessary step toward a truly unified America.
