For more than five decades, the Bainum Family Foundation has invested in the well-being of children and families, evolving our strategy over the years to reflect new thinking and learning and changing community needs.
They know there is tremendous power, expertise and lived experience within every community. The adults who nurture Black and brown children — family members, teachers and other caregivers — want the best for their children and actively seek the solutions and conditions they need in order to thrive.
