Letter From Bob Hildreth

Welcome to the Foundation for an Open America. We believe that immigration is essential to the growth and prosperity of our country. We campaign to improve immigrant education. We advocate for citizenship and legal protections for immigrants. We sponsor research to learn more about what we do.

Our programs emphasize self-help. A prime example is the La Vida Scholars program in Lynn, MA. where immigrant parents contribute time and savings so that their children can go to college.

The Foundation offers you the chance to invest in these ventures. I say invest and not donate because I am an investment banker and have always sought measurable returns in my philanthropy the same as in my businesses. When you invest with us you will get regular updates and reports, the real life impacts, and plenty of feedback opportunities.

Every investor knows the importance of leverage. The Foundation will match your money with that of public sector funds, foundation grants, and immigrant savings. I will also be investing in every venture we sponsor.

So come along. I’m bullish on immigration!
