Message from the President:

In this time of ongoing economic and social volatility we are very much aware of the challenges facing both our long-time community partners and the broader community. While acknowledging the reality that awards to grantees will need to be somewhat reduced, the HRK Foundation Board remains keenly committed to supporting community members as we work together to find solutions.

The Board supports the Nonprofits Assistance Fund www.nonprofitsassistancefund.org and its financial assessment and training tools, and we encourage all of our partners to take advantage of these NAF programs as you recalibrate in light of the new financial climate.

At HRK Foundation we remain committed to supporting the work of longstanding grantees and to making any changes in our grantmaking in a thoughtful and responsible way. We appreciate your understanding and look forward to working with you to capture those opportunities which inevitably come with challenges.

-- Arthur W. Kaemmer, M.D.
