Liberty's Promise gets a lot of its funding from foundations. It is because of their support that we are able to do the great work that we do!

THANK YOU!

The Herb Block Foundation was created in 2002, when famed political cartoonist, Herbert L. Block, passed away and left 50 million dollars in his will to create the foundation. In 2003, they began creating programs for the foundation, including a scholarship program for community college students in the Washington D.C. metro area, which started in the fall of 2005. In 2006-07, the Herb Block Foundation awarded Liberty's Promise a grant to build our civics program in Montgomery County.  

                                        
It is because of the Commonweal Foundation that our Maryland internships are possible. From its inception in 1968, this foundation has expanded its programs from just providing student loans for financially needy applicants to providing all sorts of services, grants, and scholarships to students in the Washington, DC metro area.

The Jim & Carol Trawick Foundation helps fund our four Montgomery County Civics and Citizenship Programs, specifically our program at John F. Kennedy High School in Silver Spring.  The Trawick Foundation assists local health and human service and arts non-profit organizations in Montgomery County, Maryland.
