| Victoria Foundation is a private grantmaking institution, which was founded in 1924 by Mr. Hendon Chubb in honor of his mother, Victoria Eddis Chubb. Since the early 1960’s the Foundation’s trustees have targeted giving to programs that impact the cycle of poverty in Newark, New Jersey. In the 1970’s, a second priority was initiated to protect the environment throughout the state of New Jersey. Within Newark, funded projects address K-12 education reform, neighborhood revitalization, and strengthening youth and families. |

| Environmental nonprofits that have been racing to acquire open space are now adding an emphasis on stewardship of conserved land. Program Officer Anne Jacobson prepared a Stewardship Primer to acquaint foundation trustees and other readers with what stewardship is, why it’s important, and how it’s done. Leading stewardship challenges in New Jersey are described and solutions discussed. Finally, several philanthropic approaches are suggested. |
