The Stephen and Tabitha King Foundation is a private non-profit organization founded in 1986 that promotes strengthening and supporting communities and draws upon the values and spirituality of the founders.

A family foundation, we are interested in projects that address the underlying causes of social and environmental problems, as well as those that address the consequences. We have a strong interest in libraries, literacy, information access, community health and arts and culture. As community builders, we are particularly interested in organizations and projects that will affect or serve the most members of a community.

The Foundation has a special interest in organizations and people who have less recourse to usual channels of resources, focusing on community-based initiatives in the state of Maine only.
