Values
In addition to our mission and vision, the Eastern Shore of Virginia

Building a permanent unrestricted endowment provides
the best resource for meeting the future needs of the community.
Making strategic and transformational grants is the
most effective way to create positive changes in the community and inspire
philanthropy.

arts, civic projects and the environment is our mandate; focusing on
education and healthy families as the foundation for individual success
and community vitality is our priority.
Treating our donors, grant applicants, volunteers and
employees with equal respect is essential to the success of our mission.
