The Duke Endowment recognizes that there are tangible, real-world needs in the Carolinas that extend beyond the focus of our charter. Today’s challenges need today’s solutions, and The Duke Endowment provides support where additional focus can make a difference.
Additional Focus
The Duke Endowment, through its strategic emphasis on early childhood and other emerging issues, seeks to continuously adapt to meet today’s challenges, even as we honor our founder’s mandate.

Our Strategic Focus on Ages Zero to Eight
We believe that a good beginning for children bodes well for their lives as adults and for their communities. The Duke Endowment is committed to making that a reality.
