Mission
The mission of The Jay and Rose Phillips Family Foundation
is to honor the legacy of its founders, Jay and Rose Phillips,
by continuing the family tradition of sharing resources
for the public good, while exercising leadership and flexibility
in responding to emerging community needs.
Primary Concern
During times of severe economic hardship and financial
distress, the Foundation’s primary concern is in providing
support for organizations and projects that address unmet
human and social needs.
Special
Concerns
The Foundation gives priority to proposals that reflect
the following values espoused by Jay and Rose Phillips:
- Self-sufficiency
should be the goal of all efforts to
assist people;
- Families
should be strengthened as nurturing and
financially stable environments for children;
- The
quality of health care should be continually
improved for the benefit of all people;
- Quality
education as the key to individual success
should be promoted;
- People
with disabilities and the elderly should be
able to live as independently as possible;
- Good
relations among people of all races and religions
should be fostered and discrimination should
be actively opposed;
- The
arts should be supported primarily as a vehicle
to address social issues. (continued
