The Joseph Robert Foundation is a Pennsylvania-based private foundation with a mission to support the arts, animal welfare, and the environment, primarily in the mid-Atlantic region of the U.S. The foundation seeks to fund non-profit organizations that tackle significant issues aligning with the board’s interests. It emphasizes support for local organizations with fewer resources and limited objectives but also considers funding for specific programs or projects of regional or national organizations. The foundation offers both general operating and project/program support, welcoming first-time grant seekers and prior recipients alike.
