Charles Koch Foundation

The Charles Koch Foundation partners with social entrepreneurs to remove the barriers that prevent people from reaching their potential. We do this by supporting research exploring the key issues of society and funding innovations in postsecondary education. This moves our society toward mutual benefit, where people succeed by helping others improve their lives. Our Guiding Values The way we conduct our philanthropy reflects our vision for a society that is guided by: EQUAL RIGHTS Everyone should be treated equally under the law. MUTUAL BENEFIT People succeed by helping others improve their lives. OPENNESS An open exchange of ideas creates new knowledge, innovations, and opportunities. SELF-ACTUALIZATION Every person deserves the opportunity to discover,? develop, and apply?their talents and contribute to society.
