"If you can provide the right support to the homeless and teach them to help themselves, they become productive, self-sufficient members of the community. That makes us all greater."

Jens Christensen, Chattanooga Community Kitchen

The Foundation created the Open Grants process to encourage, inspire, and improve lives in the community of Greater Chattanooga. Through innovative and effective grant making and stewardship, our goals are:

  • to encourage innovation in both those who give and those who receive

  • to build a lasting foundation of support in our community by pooling the people and funds that will make Chattanooga greater, and in turn make our world greater

  • and to recognize and celebrate the positive impact of diversity in creating a greater Chattanooga.
