PHILANTHROPY AT ITS BEST

THE VISION AND LEGACY OF WINTHROP ROCKEFELLER

Poverty has no place in Arkansas. At least that’s the credo the late Governor Winthrop Rockefeller embraced as he grew to love his adopted state. He believed this so strongly that he left a significant portion of his estate to establish a foundation that would move his beloved Arkansas out of poverty and into prosperity. The Winthrop Rockefeller Foundation is the late Governor’s perpetual gift to the state he loved. He left instructions to be bold and creative.
