M H STRAKER CHARITABLE FOUNDATION

J. William and Mary Helen Straker wrote these words when they launched the J.W. & M.H. Straker Charitable Foundation, and our administration and board of trustees align with that spirit in all our dealings. The Foundation enthusiastically supports activities that allow students to broaden their sights through travel, training, and experience. It's important to us, too, though, that students have what our President and Executive Director Susan Holdren calls "some skin in the game." Before granting schools and youth organizations funding for high school field trips, conference attendance in other cities, and sports, arts, and academic camps for student group, we'll ask, "What have the students done toward fund-raising? How much money have they earned?" If the students and their advisors have diligently worked toward earning at least a portion of the funds needed, our Foundation will be glad to hear more about their project and their needs. Please feel free to contact us... The Straker..
