The Goodnation Foundation

The Goodnation Foundation works to make philanthropy more effective and meaningful while creating an impact on our country's and communities’ toughest challenges.

We work in partnership with Goodnation Philanthropy Advisors to achieve our mission. So far we’ve empowered donors to give over $40M (and counting!) to help feed the hungry, educate students, protect the vulnerable and so much more through vetted nonprofit organizations.
