    Summary

    Children are at the heart of everything the Kellogg Foundation does. Their goal is lasting, transformational change for children. As a grantmaker, they recognize that children live in families and families live in communities. Therefore, their three areas of focused work – Thriving Children, Working Families and Equitable Communities – are dynamic and always interconnected.   


    Achieving strong outcomes for children happens by connecting what families need – at home, in child care settings, at school, at work and in their communities. As a foundation, they use a variety of change-making tools – grantmaking, impact investing, networking and convening. With their support, grantees and partners work together to make measurable improvements in children's lives.


    Their Interconnected Priorities:

    • Thriving Children: supporting a healthy start and quality learning experiences for all children.
      • Improving access to high quality, early childhood education and education systems where families are engaged in schools and practices are rooted in a community's cultures and languages.
      • Support healthy birth outcomes, quality maternal and infant health care, and children's early development through expanded access to oral health care, increased access to fresh, local healthy food, and improved nutrition for children and families in early child care settings.
      • Promote community voices and leverage strategic partnerships and policy and systems changes
    • Working Families: investing in efforts to help families obtain stable, high-quality jobs.
      • Widen pathways to stable, high-quality jobs and more equitable employment opportunities.
      • Expand support for tribal-, minority- and women-owned business enterprises and to accelerate small business growth.
      • Inform policies and change systems to create greater economic stability for families and communities.
    • Equitable Communities: helping communities to be vibrant, engaged and equitable.
      • In equitable communities, all children and families can develop, grow and contribute. Community wellbeing depends on the participation of every person.
      • Making communities more equitable requires all of us to confront how racism and bias affects our history and present day experiences, to heal from the resulting fractures to our relationships, and to begin reshaping the systems that hold back so many among us.
      • Advancing racial equity and racial healing, engaging communities in solving their own problems and developing leaders capable of guiding change.
