Archstone Foundation

We remain unequivocally committed to our core values of justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion and to ensuring all older adults and caregivers receive the support, resources, and dignity they deserve. In our latest #PointofView blog post, Rigo Saborio, our new President and CEO, shares his perspective and some of the experiences that have shaped his leadership. As Rigo writes: "At Archstone Foundation, we see justice, as well as diversity, equity, and inclusion not as abstract ideals, but as core values that inform everything we do. They shape our mission, drive our funding strategies, and strengthen our partnerships. Equity is fundamental to ensuring all older adults and caregivers receive the support, resources, and dignity they deserve." We invite you to join us in this commitment to the values of justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion.
