The Ann Sherry Foundation |
||
| Mission Statement |
The Ann Sherry Foundation is
a charitable organization, which acknowledges the community service of
Ann Sherry, an author and educator, who dedicated her life to helping
children, the infirm, and her community.
The
Foundation focuses its charitable and educational efforts in three
areas. The first is
education, where the Foundation is interested in providing funding for
innovative and technological approaches to public education.
The second is international and cultural exchange, where the
Foundation seeks to promote world peace by contributing to a better
understanding among America and its world neighbors.
The third is to address community social problems, where the
Foundation seeks to use grants to improve the welfare of the citizens of
Ohio. All
of the resources and efforts of the Foundation are to address these
objectives. While grants
are envisioned as the primary vehicle to accomplish its aims, the
Foundation may also use direct funding and technical support as
appropriate. The Foundation
will seek, in as much as is prudent, to favor requests which address two
or all three of these objectives simultaneously.
It will also attempt to leverage its funds by favoring projects
in which it can match other funds or resources that that might otherwise
not be available to address these objectives. |
