Our Mission

Angell Foundation invests in transformative opportunities, cultivates compassionate leaders, and partners with organizations committed to creating a more equitable world. We fund high-impact efforts that effect change in three main issue areas: Education As Opportunity, Food Equity, and Transformational Leadership.

We strive to fund organizations with accountable leadership and caring staff who treat people with compassion and respect. We favor organizations that have a clear mission and clear goals, as well as an explicit commitment to maintaining a healthy internal culture.

Central to our efforts is the belief that when people treat one another with dignity in their professional and personal lives, they build more authentic relationships and, as a result, are better equipped to make a positive impact in their communities.
