Focus

In order to achieve a greater impact of our philanthropic mission the foundation annually develops select areas for giving.

The Spectrum Foundation primary focus is on these three aspects:

Organization

We are committed to supporting those who defend, protect and sacrifice for our country.

Our intent is to Support Our Troops by giving to military-focused charities that enable quality of life for:

  • Deployed Troops
  • Military Family
  • Wounded Warriors
  • Veterans

Education

We strongly believe education is the cornerstone of economic and social progress, and must be encouraged.

We are committed to improving education by supporting charitable programs that offer exposure, tools and training in the following domains:

  • Mentorship & Skills Sharing
  • K‐12 STEM programs (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics)
  • Art and History

Giving

We are dedicated to non-profit agencies that enhance quality of life by providing vital health care, services, and research.

To ensure we have an impact in this domain our giving is aimed at local charities that deliver direct community support and large organizations that champion society health needs.
