Our Funds

Overview

Corporate donors, and major individual donors have the option of choosing to donate to specific funds that create access to opportunity and improve America's innovation base in targeted, unique ways. The following is a list of the funds within The Franklin Foundation that you can contribute to quarterly, semi-annually, or annually.

 

The Franklin Foundation General Operating Fund provides the resources necessary to manage general operations, accomplish organizational objectives, market the foundation's work, and help accomplish our mission. Additionally includes funding for major public initiatives, and The Franklin Experience.

 

The Franklin Futures Fund provides scholarship dollars for undergraduate, graduate, and technical/specialization students in America. This fund ensures the access to opportunity by providing supplemental scholarship dollars to needy students pursuing degrees in the sciences, technology, or advanced mathematics.

 

The Franklin Teacher's Fund provides scholarship dollars specifically for American teachers in elementary and secondary education sectors looking to augment their education to ensure a higher standard of instruction in their schools. This fund is integral to the foundation's overall message - innovation starts with education, education starts with teachers - the better prepared they are, the greater the quality of education for our kids.
