About This Cause
The foundation is a grassroots, hands-on organization that celebrates the strength and diversity of the community and has the goal of breaking the cycle of poverty. Its work supports community development programs for individuals, students, and families, and provides charitable outreach projects in the community. The Heights Foundation is a 501(c)(3) organization whose purpose is solely charitable and educational. Kathryn Kelly, Executive Director, was inspired to start the foundation in 1999 as a result of a Thanksgiving outreach project in the community. Her consistent dedication, and the support of countless volunteers and supporters, has seen the foundation’s work grow significantly over the past decade.
