As Rhode Island’s sole community foundation, the Rhode Island Foundation (the Foundation) mobilizes financial resources, fosters collaboration, and champions innovative solutions to the state’s most pressing challenges. With a deep commitment to strengthening communities and enhancing quality of life, the Foundation serves as a trusted steward of charitable giving—investing in initiatives that create opportunities and drive meaningful change.
Rooted in a century-long legacy, the Foundation continuously evolves alongside Rhode Island’s needs. Backed by generous donors, it not only provides funding but also strengthens organizations, builds partnerships, and drives progress. Guided by a newly released Five-Year Action Plan, the Foundation is poised to deepen its impact and expand its role as a unifying force for the state’s future.
