About the Foundation

The Nicklaus Children’s Health Care Foundation was formed in 2005

 for a simple reason: to help kids in the community where Jack and Barbara Nicklaus and their children and grandchildren had already lived and worked for decades.

Since then, the Foundation has grown from a vision to reality, providing charitable services for children’s health care. The Foundation’s mission is to provide support for activities that advance and enhance the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of childhood diseases and disorders. In addition, it supports not-for-profit programs and projects aimed at children’s health, safety, and well-being.
