More than 55 years ago, Evelyn and Walter Haas, Jr. established this foundation as a means to fulfill their vision of a just and caring society where all people are able to live, work and raise their families with dignity. The Fund has awarded more than $364 million in grants to a range of deeply committed and diverse nonprofit organizations working to strengthen the bonds of community and advance the cause of social justice.
We continue to believe deeply in the ability of our grantees to make a positive difference for the people and the communities they serve. Because of these commitments, the Haas, Jr. Fund will likely be paying out between 8 and 11 percent of our assets for the next two years, exceeding the standard 5-percent "payout rate" for foundations.
