The eponymous Marilyn G Rabb was the stepmother of the MGR Foundation's founder. After succumbing to her battle with cancer, the foundation was created to honor her giving nature and warm spirit. As we continue our programming, we hope to do her name justice by continuing our journey towards creating innovative programs aimed at creating positive social change.



History
Intent on tearing down social and economic barriers in our local communities, an early commitment was made to a path of active volunteerism and community development. The MGR Foundation was the realization of this ideal. Our founding spirit placed emphasis on the human aspect of philanthropy and aimed to provide hope and support to people in need.

Now
The MGR Foundation is dedicated to creating and supporting programs and initiatives that improve our many diverse communities and better the lives of their inhabitants. It is our Foundation's goal to continue to push boundaries and to evolve conceptions of giving by assisting others and giving without need of return, remaining committed to action and change, and always enriching life and encouraging the future.
