Mission Driven Investing at the W.K. Kellogg Foundation

When cereal entrepreneur Will Keith Kellogg established the W.K. Kellogg Foundation (WKKF) in 1930, his intent was clear: Children are at the heart of everything we do. But children live in families and families live in communities. For all children to thrive, families must be able to support themselves and their communities must be equitable places of opportunity.Our mission requires every available tool. In addition to grantmaking, WKKF maintains a robust Mission Driven Investment program that harnesses the power of the capital markets to improve the lives of children, their families and their communities. Through our program, we make below-market and market-rate investments to put more of our money to work in service of our mission and grow the range of opportunities available to investors to affect meaningful change
