Commitment to Equal Opportunity and Inclusion

The Foundry Community Foundation is committed to fostering an inclusive environment where our similarities and differences are respected, valued, and seen as a source of strength; equal opportunity is provided to all; and people of all cultures, backgrounds, and viewpoints feel welcome and valued. We believe that our commitment to equality of opportunity and inclusivity enhances our ability to serve our community, deepens our impact, and enriches our understanding.

In line with this commitment, The Foundry Community Foundation is an Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) employer. We provide equal employment opportunities to all employees and applicants regardless of race, color, creed, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age, disability, genetics, or any other basis protected by federal, state, or local law. This commitment to equality extends to all aspects of our employment practices, including but not limited to hiring, compensation, promotion, training, discipline, and termination. We believe that if we select the best person for each job, we will build a truly diverse and competent team, because excellence knows no bounds.

We pledge to cultivate an environment that encourages collaboration, creativity, and mutual respect. Neither harassment nor discrimination of any kind is tolerated. The standard of behavior is cooperation and respect for each other, despite any differences.
