Mission

The Samuel Lawrence Foundation strives to promote human interaction in communities by encouraging broader access to art, culture, science and medicine.

  • Environment and Science: Science is a crucial resource for evolving a sustainable futre. The intricacy of global challenges calls for new methods and innovative outlooks withing the scientific community. We advocate and aid these developments, focusing efforts on understanding and educating communities on the short and long term effects and risks of the San Onofre Power Plant and their plans for storage of nuclear waste.

    Expenses $111,025 · Grants $111,025 · Revenue $46,200

  • Arts and Culture: Connections matter and the Samuel Lawrence Foundation Strives to connect communities to art and culture. We have sustained and amplified the work of several Southern California dance and ballet programs through our mini grants to deserving students. Our priority is to increase access to music and dance for families who otherwise would not have been exposed to the arts.

    Expenses $16,746 · Grants $16,746 · Revenue $16,746

  • Education: Strengthening a sense of knowledge, skill and value is pertinent to any individual, regardless of age. We distinguish ourselves as a building block needed for advancing education of all sorts - whether it be bridging the gap between between San Diego Unified School District and access to live classical music, advocating for improved education of climate change, or providing budding scientists the funds needed to continue their education.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
