Executive Summary

Leading For Good

As our region rises, so do its chronic and current needs — and our commitment to meet them. Adopted by the Board of Directors in June 2022 after a nine-month planning process, the 2022-2027 Strategic Plan outlines how we will expand our impact and serve every corner of Palm Beach and Martin Counties through powerful philanthropy.

While the plan prioritizes our work over the next five years, it also lays the foundation for the following five decades. With our donors and nonprofit organizations, we can build on our legacy as our area’s premier philanthropic partner and close the opportunity gaps for good.
