More information
The Carpenter Foundation is a private family foundation governed by a Board which includes family members and public trustees who represent a wide range of experience and interests. Trustees make policy, grant and financial management decisions. In 2008 we celebrated the Carpenter Foundation’s 50th anniversary. The major focus of the Foundation has remained constant over the past half century and that is to make grants in four areas: human services, education, the arts and certain public interest issues. The Foundation limits funding to these activities and to the geographic area of Jackson and Josephine Counties in order to make more effective and focused use of limited resources. The Foundation is deeply concerned with the well-being of children and families and their relationship to their neighborhoods and communities.
