The Henrietta Tower Wurts Memorial aims to fulfill the wishes of Henrietta Tower Wurts by supporting programs where a modest grant can significantly influence, focusing on initiatives with meaningful goals relative to their total resources. This foundation seeks to aid disadvantaged children, youth, and the elderly, providing impactful support through careful allocation of grants.
The Forman Family Fund Grants target nonprofit organizations in Southeastern Pennsylvania that engage youth aged 11 to 18 through in-school or out-of-school-time programs focused on photography, architectural drawing and architecture, or written arts. Annually, the fund plans to award up to 10 grants, each not exceeding $40,000, to support direct program expenses, staff time, materials and supplies, up to 15% of the total grant amount for indirect expenses, and transportation, meals, and field trips for participants. This initiative is designed to bolster arts education and provide enriching opportunities for young people in the specified areas of interest.
