Ballmer Group is a mid-sized philanthropic funder based in Bellevue, Washington, focused on improving economic mobility for children and families in the United States. It supports leaders and organizations that have demonstrated the ability to reshape opportunity and reduce systemic inequities across multiple domains, including early learning, K-12 education, college and career pathways, housing, health, and criminal justice. The group and its partners emphasize efforts aimed at undoing systemic racism and the barriers it has created. Ballmer Group operates with national scope and regional concentration, notably in Southeast Michigan, Washington state, and Los Angeles County. It was co-founded by Connie Ballmer and Steve Ballmer, and in 2026 expanded its presence to Washington state, including extending its free, full-day summer learning initiative there.
