The Kantner Foundation Inc., was established in 1987 by Woodrow A. Kantner, self-made real estate developer/investor from Martin County, Florida, to carry out his twin objectives of (i) advancing the free enterprise system and community based philanthropy including the protection of private property rights, and (ii) providing scholarships to like-minded high school students from the local community. Scholarships are awarded each year to outstanding students that have demonstrated high potential for future success and have met the qualifications set by the Foundation. To date, the Foundation has distributed millions of dollars in the form of scholarships and grants to not-for-profit organizations in Palm Beach & Martin Counties. The Kantner Foundation is one of a select few Private Foundations in the country whose scholarship and not-for-profit grant application and review process is completely online. This allows the Foundation to evaluate more potential candidates and in turn increase the likelihood of awarding more scholarship and grant moneys.
