Giving Philosophy

The foundation approaches its giving through long-term partnership with its subsidiary Drug ARM, focusing on sustainable transformation rather than short-term relief. It values evidence-based approaches to alcohol and drug issues and maintains a historical commitment to community-based support dating back to the temperance movement.

Wealth Source:As a corporate foundation, the wealth comes from corporate sources (likely related to or partnered with Drug ARM). The foundation has been established since 1934 and operates with an annual giving budget of $100,000.

Tips for Applicants

Given the foundation's specific focus on alcohol and drug harm reduction and mental health, applicants should demonstrate alignment with these thematic priorities and show how their programs support people at risk of homelessness or communities affected by substance abuse. Direct engagement with Drug ARM may be beneficial given the operational relationship.
