The Joseph Drown Foundation has a 70-year history of providing grants to community organizations that assist individuals in becoming successful, self-sustaining, contributing citizens. The Foundation is interested in programs that break down any barrier that prevents a person from continuing to grow and learn.  

The Foundation's grant making is geographically focused in Los Angeles County.  
Education is the primary focus with a belief that equity and opportunity are best addressed through quality public education and the support of programs and incredible nonprofit partners that work toward solutions for the myriad of existing problems in Los Angeles area schools. Some areas of particular interest include, but are not limited to, charter schools, professional development for teachers, and college access programs.  These education reform grants can be made directly to schools or to nonprofit organizations working in the field.

We aim to create positive and impactful relationships within our Los Angeles community and strive to be responsive as the needs of our nonprofit partners shift and change.
