About Us

The Durfee Foundation’s focus is on extraordinary people who are making a better Los Angeles.

Durfee is a family foundation that seeks to adhere to the values of our founders, Dorothy Durfee Avery and R. Stanton Avery, by rewarding individual initiative and leadership.

The majority of our grantmaking focuses on the Los Angeles region, where the foundation’s history lies, and where funding needs are great.

We build partnerships with individuals and organizations that share our ideals of creativity, risk-taking, fiscal care, integrity, entrepreneurial spirit and continuous learning.

We seek to build community in unexpected ways. We make grants where our dollars will have the greatest impact. We hope that Durfee support provides leverage for other opportunities.

Durfee is a patient grantmaker. We are willing to make grants where results may unfold over time.
