The Foundation recognizes that there are significant needs throughout the country and the world but has decided to focus our resources in Wake County where 99.6% of the 2011 donations were granted to nonprofit organizations in Wake County that support the Foundation's mission to positively impact the lives of children and young adults. Total donations to nonprofit organization during the Foundation's eight year history now total $4,230,821.
The largest project of the Foundation continues to be the nonprofit Triangle Aquatic Center, a public aquatic facility in Cary, North Carolina that provided public access to more than 430,000 visits in 2011. TAC provides year-round public access to health, safety, recreation and competition aquatic programming for children, adults and aquatic organization in the Triangle.
The Foundation has also been a long-time supporter of the nonprofit April's Angels that provide fantasy bedrooms for chronically ill children in Wake and surrounding counties. The April's Angels board and volunteers bring new life into the homes of families with children whose activities outside the home are limited due to physical and / or mental illness.
