The Commonwealth Fund

The Commonwealth Fund

The Commonwealth Fund--among the first private foundations started by a woman philanthropist, Anna M. Harkness--was established in 1918 with the broad charge to enhance the common good. The mission of The Commonwealth Fund is to promote a high-performing health care system that achieves better access, improved quality, and greater efficiency, particularly for society's most vulnerable, including low-income people, the uninsured, minority Americans, young children, and elderly adults.
