Foundations and other Funding Organizations
help HMI to initiate key programs and projects
Holistic Management® International is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that depends largely on philanthropic support to accomplish its mission Over the years the bulk of that support has come from individual contributors, which is something we’re quite proud of. However, we wouldn’t be where we are today without the support of a number of foundations and funding organizations that have enabled us to initiate key programs and projects, or to enhance our ability to operate more effectively.
