The James Jay Dudley Luce Foundation
Supporting young global leadership since 2007.
The needs of the world are vast, but so too are our resources. One of humanity’s most valuable is young leadership working for positive social change. We support it through grants, centers, awards, and publications.
The Luce and Dudley families have held a long and historical commitment to youth, education, and social improvement, in the United States and around the world. This foundation continues that tradition.
I aspire to continue this family tradition through the grants, centers, awards, and publications of The James Jay Dudley Luce Foundation, playing a role, however humble, in bettering humanity.
My goal is uplifting the worst of humanity while celebrating the best of it, especially the arts. Everything we build, from our care model to our newsroom to our publishing house, serves that single purpose.

For twenty-five years our work has grown into a connected family of nonprofits, a newsroom, and a publishing house, each strengthening the others.
