Our Vision
While individual interests may vary, the trustees agree to select yearly causes for significant shared support. The balance of annual giving will be divided evenly among the trustees to be given at their discretion. The family reaffirms the importance of giving back and doing good; to that end they will seek out other like-minded donors to enhance the impact of their giving.
Wildlife Conservation.
The economic future and well being of many African States and communities will depend on the growth in eco-tourism.
Sustainable Agriculture.
The von Keller Corporationoffers competitive grants to fund research and education projects that advance sustainable agricultural practices in the United States, and Africa.
Clean Energy Innovation
We work on priority issues across the U.S. with effective and diverse coalitions of grantees who share our vision of a clean energy future for all.
