What We Stand For

These values and philosophy govern the operations and grant-making of the John Gogian Family Foundation:

Service

To serve others that are in need or suffering. To support and nurture the capabilities and contributions of others.

Community

To strengthen the vital role of local organizations in addressing public needs. To reinforce the interconnections between people so that they may build sustainable, supportive communities.

Compassion

To care for others with empathy and understanding.

Integrity

To exercise character, principle and honesty in all our actions. To support worthy institutions that are accountable to their missions and constituencies.

Humility

To treat others with honor and respect. To draw attention to the good work of nonprofit organizations without concern for public recognition of the Foundation.
