Creating conditions where all can participate, grow, & thrive
Our three Foundation community investment strategies are based on best and most innovative approaches to philanthropic efforts and learning from stakeholder interviews and experience. They advance the Steelcase Foundation’s mission and are supported by our guiding principles.The cumulative impact of the three strategies will move the community, sector, and Foundation closer to the vision where the inherent brilliance of community is embraced and efforts are focused on creating conditions where all can participate, grow, and thrive.
