PHILOSOPHY
he Foundation offers support for innovative research, teaching, and public outreach programs illuminating how the free enterprise system of wealth creation offers practical solutions to poor people around the world. We support research about the effectiveness of programs that create and promote enterprise-based solutions to poverty, such as fostering new entrepreneurs whose endeavors result in the creation of goods, products or services. While the Foundation’s activities in this area are new, our aim is to expand philanthropic activity in this area to approximately $20 to $25 million annually by 2010.
