Our Commitment

The Martin Richard Foundation is proud to invest in local youth programs that foster civic engagement. We recognize the transformative power of youth development and leadership and, through our grant making, we aim to help existing nonprofits deepen their impact across communities.

Grants

Funding from the Martin Richard Foundation stems from relationships built by our Board of Directors with non-profit partners and youth groups in the community. Grants will support nonprofit organizations that address social equity through:

Youth Development
Empowering, educating and leading young people to be agents of change in their communities through leadership training and opportunities for civic engagement.

Community Building
Supporting diversity, inclusion and social justice through collective action and through programs that ensure the dignity, safety and well-being of all.

Adaptive & Inclusive Efforts
Providing opportunities for people with disabilities to work, play and learn alongside non-disabled peers; ensuring that all people are respected and valued in their community.
