Grateful to Senator Susan Rubio for highlighting the real impact of Read Conmigo grants. When students have access to bilingual books and resources, they’re not just learning to read, they’re seeing themselves reflected and empowered to succeed.

The Kemper Foundation was proud to connect with dual-language professionals at the CABE California Association for Bilingual Education and NABE conferences to spread the word about our Read Conmigo Grant programs.

At The Kemper Foundation, we support building healthier communities each year through our Feeding America affiliate food bank partners across the county.

In 2025 alone, our funding helped provide over 280,000 lbs of Foods to Encourage (F2E) to communities in need. F2E focuses on addressing hunger, while prioritizing healthy nutritious food.

This Black History Month, we’re proud to spotlight The National Urban League and its affiliates. For more than 120-years, the NUL has been advancing equity, opportunity, and economic self-reliance in communities across the country.

Through The Kemper Foundation’s philanthropic support, we help further education, job training, entrepreneurship, and community development efforts that empower African Americans and other historically overlooked populations.

It was a pleasure to visit and spend time with the 2025 – 2026 Kemper Scholars cohorts at our partner schools, University of Notre Dame and University of Wisconsin-Madison! Hearing first-hand how scholarships are making a difference in students’ academic journeys made for truly meaningful visits.
