About Peter & Elizabeth Tower Foundation

With over $135 million in assets, the Peter & Elizabeth Tower Foundation distributes more than $6 million in grants annually. Our geographic funding areas are Erie and Niagara Counties in New York State and Barnstable, Dukes, Essex, and Nantucket Counties in Massachusetts. Our Mission As grantmaker, partner, and advocate, the Tower Foundation strengthens organizations and works to change systems to improve the lives of young people with learning disabilities, mental illness, substance use disorders, and intellectual disabilities. Our Vision The Tower Foundation envisions equitable communities where all young people are included, accepted, and valued; and are confident in themselves. Our Values The Tower Foundation values: * Diverse Voices – We listen to and learn from those with different points of view and perspectives. We seek to be proximate with the communities we serve – continually engaging in respectful conversation and incorporating what we hear into our work. * Collaboration – We understand that in order to make progress, we must build relationships with our partners and share knowledge, resources, expertise, and strategies. * Innovation – We embrace change and are willing to take risks, recognizing the potential for transformative effect. We look for opportunities to try new and creative strategies and encourage others to do the same. * Perseverance – We recognize that change work can be slow and challenging. We are committed to the long-term improvement of organizations and communities. * Equity – We pay close attention to the convergence of our focus areas with systemic issues of racism, sexism, classism, ableism, and more, because living at the intersection of multiple identities is a reality that factors importantly into our grantmaking.
