The David and Lucile Packard Foundation have worked with partners all over the world to improve the lives of children, families and communities for more than 45 years. The foundation is also engaged in restoration and protection of our planet.
The David and Lucile Packard Foundation is a family foundation guided by the enduring business philosophy and personal values of Lucile and David, whose innovative approach is to help transform a small electronics shop in their garage into one of the world’s largest technology companies.
Their approach to business and community participation guides our philanthropy. The values of the Foundation reflect the personal values of Lucile, who spent her life as a volunteer in the community, often on efforts aimed at improving the lives of children and David who believed in the power of science to improve the human condition and restore the health of the planet. Today, their children and grandchildren continue to help guide the foundation. The foundation work on significant issues improving the lives of children, advancing reproductive health, enabling the creative pursuit of science and conserving and restoring the earth’s natural systems.
The David and Lucile Packard Foundation respect as well as support the leadership of our grantees and believe our success depends on seeking out and listening to those who are best able to make meaningful impact.
