Andis Foundation

The Andis Foundation, created by Andis Company, focuses on philanthropy rather than venture or private equity investing. Its mission is to support youth and families through grants that build resilience, leadership, and healthy relationships. The foundation emphasizes programs aligned with the Search Institute’s 40 Developmental Assets, funding initiatives that promote mentorship, wellness, and family support. It also backs organizations addressing addiction and mental health challenges. Grantmaking is its core activity, with applications reviewed twice yearly. Eligible nonprofits must be IRS-recognized, and funding is directed toward programmatic efforts with measurable community impact.
