What Is The Colcom Foundation?

The Colcom Foundation was initially created by Cordelia S. May in 1996. At the time, she had reached the age of 68. Although she subsequently passed away in 2005, the work of the Foundation has continued. In fact, it has recently reached a point of significant expansion. This allows the Foundation to become even more efficient and effective.

The point of the Colcom Foundation has always been to promote growth at a substantial level for the basic human quality of life. This has led to the Foundation taking a number of steps to increase the quality and impact of its own work. One of the many concerns the Foundation has had in recent years is the contrast between humanity and the natural world.

The Colcom Foundation is involved with a number of grassroots organizations focused on things like sustainability, environmental protection, and the stewardship of green spaces. It supports Protect PT, a nonprofit fighting against fossil fuels; it works with the Environmental Integrity Project, a watchdog group that ensures businesses are complying with eco-protection regulations. It even advocates for local groups like Tree Pittsburgh that have a direct impact on the surrounding environment by planting trees in residential and commercial neighborhoods.

There have been an increasing number of events that have led to serious debates. These have included such issues as pollution, loss of biodiversity, habitat destruction, and others. Many of these problems have been harbingers of a possible complete collapse of many of the world’s ecosystems. This would lead to a tragedy on a global scale.

The Colcom Foundation understands that many of these issues are linked directly to unchecked population growth. However, this is one of the many issues that seem to be driven by the quality of the culture that breeds them. The humanitarian perspective that was adopted by Cordelia S. May placed her, in many ways, ahead of her own time.

As of today, many of the issues that the Colcom Foundation was created to help solve have become truly global issues. This means that, with the continuing support of the public, the Foundation is in a position to influence public discourse. This support is crucial in order to help the Foundation be a positive influence on the quality of discourse in these matters. Visit this page to learn more.
