The John Ernest Foundation is a fund-earning organization. Each Objective rests on it's own financial base and funding is earned or secured on an as needed basis by each individual project/objective. Gifts in cash or in kind are welcomed and are applied either as designated or as needed. Currently, administrative costs are carried by the Foundation's members.

The number of projects/objectives that the Foundation is involved with continues to increase. If you have an idea or individual that you would like to sponsor, the experience and wisdom offered by the Foundation's network of resources may be of interest or assistance to you.
