The W.K. Kellogg Foundation (WKKF) – founded in 1930 as an independent, private foundation by breakfast cereal pioneer Will Keith Kellogg – is among the largest philanthropic foundations in the US. Guided by the belief that all children should have an equal opportunity to thrive, WKKF works with communities to create conditions for vulnerable children so they can realize their full potential in school, work, and life. In a fast-changing world with scarce resources and complex challenges facing children, families, and communities, we employ below market and market-rate impact investment dollars to make a difference in the lives of vulnerable children, to advance our mission.
