The mission of The Burton D. Morgan Foundation is to strengthen the free enterprise system by investing in organizations and institutions that foster the entrepreneurial spirit. In 1967, Burton D. Morgan established the private foundation now based in Hudson, Ohio. The primary purpose of the Foundation is to preserve and support the free enterprise system, which Mr. Morgan believed to be America’s greatest asset.
The Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation of Kansas City is a private, nonpartisan foundation that works with partners to advance entrepreneurship in America and improve the education of children and youth. The Kauffman Foundation was established in the mid-1960s by the late entrepreneur and philanthropist Ewing Marion Kauffman.
The Northeast Ohio Collegiate Entrepreneurship Program is a pilot program at five liberal arts colleges in Northeast Ohio: Baldwin-Wallace College, Hiram College, Lake Erie College, Oberlin College and The College of Wooster. The goal of NEOCEP, part of the Kauffman Campuses Initiative, is for entrepreneurship to become a common and accessible educational experience for all liberal arts students. The five-year initiative is designed to encourage a variety of innovative approaches for inculcating cross-campus entrepreneurship education ultimately resulting in new models that will extend well beyond the boundaries of the grantee institutions.
