The JM Foundation was created by Jeremiah Milbank, co-founder of the Borden Milk Company, in 1924. Originally its mission was to help integrate people with disabilities from WWI into American life at a time where they were quite stigmatizing. He proponent of limited government and the "independent liberty" of Social Darwinist thought popular around universities like Yale during his age. "To realize his vision, The JM Foundation Directors support activities that foster self-sufficiency, personal responsibility, and private initiative."[1]
Milbank helped Herbert Hoover found the Boys & Girls Clubs of America, and served as their treasurer for 25 years.
According to its website, the Foundation’s current philanthropic goals "are to encourage market-oriented public policy solutions and to enhance America’s unique system of free enterprise, entrepreneurship, private property ownership, and voluntarism."[1]
JM Foundation is a major right-wing funder. It's current executive director Carl Helstrom works as Vice President for programs at another major right-wing funder: the Lynde and Harry Bradley Foundation.[2]
