OUR MISSION

The Foundation provides support across the state to amplify and extend the positive social impact of Amelia Peabody’s philanthropic legacy. Building on a longstanding commitment to young people in under-resourced communities, we work to ensure every child has the opportunity to thrive. Families flourish when they have equitable access to high-quality education and out-of-school-time programs, a healthy and inclusive food system, pathways to economic mobility, and safe, stable housing.

We invest in building resilient, vibrant communities where children and families can thrive
