Supporting Michigan & Greater Flint

Launched in 1961, the Anna Paulina Foundation was created to give back to the community where the family business first grew and prospered. We support public charities in the State of Michigan, with a special interest in the greater Flint area.

Today, more than 60 years since its founding, the Foundation focuses its work on four areas of interest:

THE ARTS, with special interest in music

YOUTH LEADERSHIP & enrichment

URBAN BEAUTIFICATION

HUMAN SERVICES for vulnerable populations

The Foundation only makes grants to public charities and its grant awards may support an organization’s operations, programs, and/or capital projects.
In 2024, the Foundation expects to award roughly ten grants in the range of $75,000 to $125,000. Larger grants may be made in special circumstances.
