Our focus is on tangible and transformational changes for families in Memphis.

We Are About Memphis

Our grantmaking strategy allows us to attack many of the same issues from different sides in a way that creates more lasting and sustainable value for Memphis. Learn more about our three primary initiatives - Building Strong Families, Innovation Grants, and Big Bets.

We Are Partners

We listen to the leaders and stakeholders on the front lines already doing the work. Whether they’re from non-profit, community, or government initiatives, we empower them with the resources, networks and organizational support they need.

Love is great. But Justice needs an infrastructure.

We help build the roads.

We Are a Family

We do all this because we were raised by Kemmons and Dorothy to know better and to do right. They taught us that Memphis is our family, that we all belong to each other. Their legacy of service, humility, faith, and family is behind everything we do. Learn more about our story here.
