The Ben B. Cheney Foundation aims to enhance the quality of life in communities where Cheney’s lumber company operated by supporting a broad range of efforts.
The Foundation prioritizes projects over ongoing operational support but is currently open to both due to unique nonprofit sector needs. Projects should have a clear timeline, specific goals, and a detailed budget. Priority is often given to one-time needs for capital or equipment, helping to support projects that expand or initiate new programs. Grants are evaluated on potential sustainability and impact, supporting a diverse range of areas including charity, civic engagement, culture, education (with a focus on selected colleges and universities serving Pierce County), services for the elderly, health, special needs and social services, as well as youth development programs.
