Charles Stewart Mott's central belief in the partnership of humanity was the basis upon which the Foundation bearing his name was established in 1926. While this has remained a guiding principle, the Foundation has refined and broadened its grantmaking over time to reflect changing national and world conditions. Through its four programs, and their more specific program areas, the Foundation seeks to fulfill its mission of supporting efforts that promote a just, equitable and sustainable society. Inherent in all grantmaking is the desire to enhance the capacity of individuals, families or institutions at the local level and beyond. The Foundation hopes that its collective work in any program area could lead toward systematic change.
