VALUES
The Good Foundation believes in the power of community and the transformation that can happen when groups of people come together towards our common good. Founded in June of 2017 by Ashlee and Chris Kleinert, The Good Foundation is a private family foundation with the mission of serving populations in need of a chance. Our values of Compassion, Innovation, Collaboration, Resource, and Community align and strengthen our collective identity. These values reflect our founders’ inspiration, character, and influence. While the Foundation will continue to evolve to ensure we are relevant and effective, our values will inform our decision-making.
Our focus is to serve populations in need of a chance…those at the intersection of issues such as abuse, human trafficking, addiction and crime.
We seek to convene, spotlight and bring awareness to the incredible capacity and potential of the women and men who have faced unimaginable challenges but are working towards building a new life.
We partner with nonprofit organizations, B-corporations, and social impact enterprises to identify resources and opportunities that will support them on their journey.
The Good Foundation provides grants by invitation only.
