OUR VISION
"To provide nonprofit programs and grantmaking designed to help people help themselves"
A tradition of extraordinary giving is what makes Edyth Bush Charitable Foundation one of Central Florida's most recognized and respected organizations. For almost 33 years the Foundation has carried on the trust imparted to it by its namesake Mrs. Edyth Bush. This special woman dedicated her life to promoting philanthropy throughout the community. Since its inception, the Foundation has given millions of dollars in funding for important programs dealing in education, arts, health and human services for many needy individuals, families and organizations in Central Florida. Steeped in tradition, the Foundation has not lost touch with the complex and important issues of today. Through the compassionate and experienced guidance of our Board of Directors, the Edyth Bush Charitable Foundation continues to be a vibrant and innovative proponent for our community.

Edyth Bush (Mrs. Archibald G. Bush) was born in Chicago, Illinois, the daughter of Sarah and Eugene Bassler. She became a successful ballet dancer, actress, musician, composer and playwright.
