About

The Skaggs Family Foundation has a philanthropic vision that is predicated on the unshakable conviction that empowered people can shape a better society for everyone. Our Foundation awards highly targeted grants that are focused on making a meaningful, enduring difference - - both incremental and transformational changes for individuals and communities.

Fostering Human Rights And Equality
Our belief in basic human rights and equal opportunity drives the Foundation’s focus on aggressively fighting injustice, defending the most vulnerable, and enhancing opportunities for all.
Providing For Essential Needs
Our belief in open access to the essentials of life drive the Foundation’s focus on maintaining a vital safety net: critical health care, feeding and support, and education and job training opportunities.
Investing In Our Home Communities
Our belief in giving back drives the Foundation’s focus on bettering the areas that we call home. In those communities, we are working to create and sustain long-term health and economic opportunities for those in acute need.
