Our Foundation strives to solve real problems through partnerships and civic engagement to preserve and build a solid foundation for the future. We envision a growing community that has access to resources that will allow all people to thrive through our four program initiatives.


  1. Educational Awareness
  2. Financial Independence
  3. Health Disparities
  4. Homelessness


By focusing on these areas, the Foundation will provide tools for the community to thrive in four of the most important parts of life: learning, finance, health and shelter.

Our Program Initiatives

Building Health

 A healthy community does not create a burden on itself or society as a whole.  CMF will strive to encourage behavioral changes for physical and mental well-being by:

  • Supporting causes to reduce the risks associated with overweight and obesity
  • Community outreach, physical and cultural diversity activities
  • Disease Management: Encourage screening and promote healthy lifestyles for prevention of chronic health diseases
  • Encourage minorities to support research efforts focusing on chronic diseases which are disproportionate for their ethnic groups
  • Mental Well-Being: Elevate awareness of the mental health disorders that affect underserved communities 
  • Dispel the negative stigma associated with mental health services 

Building Education

 An educated community strives to create and build. CMF will support and mentor youth to  encourage educational advancement through:  

  • Academic excellence and pursuit of higher education
  • Literacy: Encourage more reading
  • Job Skills/Career Development 
  • STEM Programs
  • Young Cultivated Minds of the Future (YCMF) 

Building Wealth

  A financially independent community creates wealth for itself and grows. CMF will promote financial independence by educating the community and providing local resources for:

  • Personal Credit: Understanding credit and repairing bad credit
  • Budgeting:  Making choices and reaching goals
  • Entrepreneurship: Learning how to own your own business
  • Ownership:  Loan options and programs
  • Retirement & Estate Planning:  Keeping what you’ve earned
