The Mission of the RZ Foundation
The RZ Foundation (RZF) is a family-run charitable organization committed to ameliorating suffering, protecting natural resources, and correcting inequity of all varieties. We believe that everyone should have access to clean water, air, and energy, a safe place to live, wholesome food, and quality physical and mental health care. We further hold that all people deserve a life beyond subsistence, enriched by restorative recreation and access to reliable information.
