What We Fund
The Kimball Foundation supports college access and persistence, cultural enrichment, environmental education, and workplace success programs.
College Access and Persistence
We work to ensure that students who come from low-income backgrounds persist on a pathway through secondary school and into and through two- or four-year college with the support of high-quality academic and college-bound programs.
Workplace Success
We work to provide youth who face significant obstacles to employment with comprehensive training and services that prepare them for job placement with increased earnings potential.
Cultural Enrichment
We work to provide students with equal access to participatory arts education to foster an appreciation of the arts while promoting community engagement through cultural experiences.
Environmental Education
We work to provide youth with high engagement programs that provide outdoor experiential, wilderness, and environmental science education.
Where We Fund
We serve the residents of San Francisco, Marin, San Mateo, and Sonoma counties and to a limited extent Santa Clara County as far south as Palo Alto.
