About Us
The Edward W. Hazen Foundation seeks to further its program objectives by supporting the efforts of community-based, and other nonprofit agencies, that view people from diverse backgrounds as partners and not just as clients or program recipients. The Foundation favors proposals from organizations which demonstrate a commitment to diversifying their boards and staff. In those cases where the demographics of the community served by the organization limit such diversity, the Foundation encourages its grantees to collaborate with agencies or groups that work with people from other racial, ethnic, and cultural backgrounds.
