The Wilson Sheehan Foundation’s (WS) mission is to expand opportunity by investing in organizations that help prevent and alleviate poverty, with a focus on education, economic mobility, and thriving families and children. WS partners with organizations whose leadership has proven capacity to effectively steward funds and achieve results—particularly those that are innovative, replicable, and supported by research. While the Foundation does accept unsolicited proposals, the vast majority of investments are sourced through trusted advisors and personal contacts. Outside of our network, WS funds programs that are in the process of replicating or conducting research to scale.
