Philanthropy Is Activism.

Contemporary Art Challenges Us.. It Broadens Our Horizons. It Asks Us To Think Beyond The Limits Of Conventional Wisdom.

Frankly, I'm Not Sure How Far I Would Get If I Attended Public School Today. It's Not Just That Public Schools Aren't Producing The Results We Want - It's That We're Not Giving Them What They Need To Help Students Achieve At High Levels. K-12 Education In The United States Is Deeply Antiquated.

So We Created The Broad Foundations To Do Four Things: To Improve Urban Public Education, To Support Innovative Scientific And Medical Research, To Foster Art Appreciation For Audiences Worldwide And To Support Civic Initiatives In Los Angeles.
