Our Programs

The Whitaker Family Foundation is focused primarily on supporting childhood and adolescent healthcare and education.

Established in December 2014 by and among the family members of the late C. Don Whitaker and his wife, L. Pauline Whitaker, the Foundation builds upon the philanthropic vision of the Whitaker family, seeking to raise public awareness and create funding to support medical and scientific research into the causes of and cures for children diagnosed with chronic or serious medical conditions.
