The Walton Family Foundation
The Walton Family Foundation (WFF) was established as the culmination of the philanthropic interests of the family of Sam M. and Helen R. Walton. Begun in 1997, the charter school initiative is a component of one of the Foundation’s four program focus areas, Systemic Reform in Education (K-12). The WFF provides operating support to individual schools and nonprofit charter networks and facilities assistance to organizations that leverage investments for charter school facilities.
The WFF has made a $7.4 million grant to LISC’s Educational Facilities Financing Center and a $10 million program-related investment for LISC’s Educational Facilities Loan & Guaranty Fund.
