Wallace Foundation

The Wallace Foundation is a national philanthropy based in New York City that seeks to foster improvements in learning and enrichment for disadvantaged children and the vitality of the arts for everyone.〔("Mission" ) on the Wallace Foundation website〕 The foundation aims to develop knowledge about how to solve important social problems, and promote widespread solutions based on that knowledge, by funding projects to test innovative ideas, commissioning independent research to find out what works and what doesn’t, and then communicating the results to help practitioners, policymakers and leading thinkers.〔DeVita, M, Christine. ("Power of Ideas: How Foundations Can Generate Knowledge to Spark Change" ) Rand Corporation website (Winter 2010-2011)〕
== History ==
The Wallace Foundation began with the philanthropy of DeWitt and Lila Acheson Wallace, who founded of The Reader's Digest Association.〔West, Melanie Grayce. ("Financial Know-How for Nonprofits Online" ) ''Wall Street Journal'' (February 18, 2013)〕 Drawing on the money they earned from the magazine, which they launched in 1922, the Wallaces contributed to a wide assortment of artistic, cultural and youth-serving causes. They died in the 1980s (Dewitt Wallace in 1981, Lila Wallace in 1984), leaving much of their fortune to four private foundations they had created in their lifetimes.〔("The Wallace Foundation: A Brief History" ) on the Wallace Foundation website〕 In 2003 a single national foundation, The Wallace Foundation, emerged from the consolidation of these private foundations.〔("College: Wallace Foundation Mission Statement" ) on ''The New York Times'' website〕
