The Keith Haring Foundation

The Keith Haring Foundation is a foundation whose mission is to sustain, expand, and protect the legacy of Keith Haring, his art, and his ideals. It supports not-for-profit organizations that assist children, as well as organizations involved in education, prevention, and care related to AIDS. In 1989, Haring established the foundation to ensure that his philanthropic legacy would continue indefinitely. The Foundation makes grants to not-for-profit groups and concentrates its giving in two areas: support of organizations which enrich the lives of underprivileged children and support of organizations which engage in education, prevention, and care with respect to AIDS and HIV infection. It also maintains and protects Haring's artistic legacy, maintaining a collection of art along with archives that facilitate historical research about the artist and the times and places in which he lived and worked, and supports arts and educational institutions by funding exhibitions, programming, and publications.
