OUR IMPACT

Together, we turn knowledge into action—and compassion into lasting impact.

At the Amy Krouse Rosenthal Foundation, education is at the heart of everything we do—whether it’s advancing early detection of ovarian cancer or helping children fall in love with reading.

We fund groundbreaking ovarian cancer early detection research, support education and awareness efforts that empower women and families, and place books directly into the hands of children who need them most. These efforts are made possible through strategic funding, trusted research institutions and nonprofit partners, and a deeply committed community of supporters.
