Encouraging and supporting volunteerism and charitable giving within the communities of family members
Who We Are
Supporting charitable organizations and promoting philanthropic involvement since 1993 when the Auer Family Foundation was founded by Peggy and Ed Auer.
An important component of the primary mission was to encourage charitable volunteerism by their ten children and their spouses. The Foundation provided financial support to organizations benefiting from their volunteer involvement, and to encourage charitable giving in the family, the Foundation offered matching gifts.
Peggy and Ed Auer passed away in 2010. The family continues the Foundations’ work in their memory. The board and supporting staff are all members of the Auer family and have included their children, their children’s spouses, and many of their twenty-five grandchildren. Trustees serve a five year term, and are drawn from the family ranks. Currently, two grandchildren are among the seven appointed Trustees.
