Principles
Declaration of Principles
The Kansas Health Foundation is a private philanthropic organization dedicated to improving the health of all Kansans. First and foremost, we believe in people. We believe that by working with others, we can make a difference in the health – and lives – of Kansans.

As a philanthropy, we have both the privilege and the responsibility to engage in the strategic business of grantmaking with the ultimate purpose of improving humankind. We are able to do this work because we are an independent voice, responsible to the people of Kansas.

We pledge to be mindful of our financial resources and to be good stewards in the allocation of these funds for work that benefits Kansans. Our resources – both human and financial – will be used in long-term, systematic ways that result in the improved health of all Kansans.

We always strive to be better grantmakers by listening and by bringing people together around a common vision for a healthy future. Our commitment is to provide leadership – and leadership opportunities – so the people of Kansas can continue to be proud to call this state their home.

We are motivated in our work by the potential of future generations. The children of Kansas should be able to achieve their full potential, to grow up to be healthy, caring, thinking, tolerant, resilient and contributing adults. Above all, we pledge to do our work in ways that allow us to be good ancestors for generations to come.
