DescriptionThe Foundation focuses its grantmaking on the following areas: public broadcasting/media; higher education; environment; sustainable Ithaca; and Tompkins County, NY. Public broadcasting/media grants support a diverse and transparent media landscape.

It aims to heighten public awareness of critical environmental, political, and social issues to foster a more fully informed electorate.
