Our Mission

The John L. Scott Foundation was founded in 1997 in honor of John L. Scott, a philanthropist and community activist who believed in the value of giving back. The John L. Scott Foundation is supported by the generous donations and volunteer efforts of our sales associates and support team members. These voluntary contributions enable the John L. Scott Foundation to help sponsor events that help raise millions of dollars for children's healthcare each year. Our mission is to help kids get healthy and be at home.

"Our partnership with the John L. Scott Foundation has made a profound impact on the children and families Camp Korey serves. Their support can be seen in the smiles of the Campers and the laughter that lights up their eyes when they are at camp. Campers gain valuable life-skills, increase confidence, resiliency and independence through the Camp Korey program. Their support of us will be leveraged to bring the joy of Camp to even more children. We are incredibly grateful for our partnership and the John L. Scott Foundation’s dedication to providing life changing camp programs for children, at no cost to them.”

- Hillary Carey, Executive Director, Camp Korey.

"Harrison Medical Center programs, particularly the Pediatric Rehabilitation Program have been significantly impacted by the John L. Scott Foundation. Thanks to the John L. Scott Foundation and Lennox Scott, the Harrison Medical Center Foundation has received over $250,000 in sponsorship support, grants and gifts since 1998. Past contributions have helped support many ongoing projects in Pediatrics such as our Feeding Library in which we replenish infant nipples and bottles to specialty designed feeding tools and utensils."

- Sarah Chamberlin, Development Officer and Interim Executive Director of the Harrison Foundation.
