form 990, part iii, line 1ORGANIZATION'S MISSION THE BIDEN FOUNDATION BUILDS UPON VICE PRESIDENT AND DR. BIDEN'S LIFELONG COMMITMENT TO PROTECT AND ADVANCE THE RIGHTS AND OPPORTUNITIES OF ALL PEOPLE THROUGH EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMMING AND PUBLIC POLICY ANALYSIS. INITIALLY, THE FOUNDATION'S AREAS OF FOCUS WILL BE: FOREIGN POLICY, THE CANCER INITIATIVE, COMMUNITY COLLEGES AND MILITARY FAMILIES, PROTECTING CHILDREN, EQUALITY, VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN & STRENGTHENING THE MIDDLE CLASS. VICE PRESIDENT BIDEN HAS PLAYED A UNIQUE ROLE IN OUR COUNTRY THROUGHOUT HIS YEARS OF PUBLIC SERVICE. HE HAS CHAMPIONED - AND WILL CONTINUE TO CHAMPION - PROGRESS AND PROSPERITY FOR AMERICAN FAMILIES. THE BIDEN FOUNDATION BUILDS UPON THAT MISSION: TO IDENTIFY POLICIES THAT ADVANCE THE MIDDLE CLASS, DECREASE ECONOMIC INEQUALITY AND INCREASE OPPORTUNITY FOR ALL PEOPLE. IN ADDITION, THE FOUNDATION WILL WORK TO ENSURE THAT EVERYONE - NO MATTER THEIR INCOME LEVEL, RACE, GENDER, AGE OR SEXUALITY - IS TREATED EQUALLY AND GETS A FAIR SHOT AT ACHIEVING THE AMERICAN DREAM. FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4D OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES ENSURING LGBTQ EQUALITY In America, everyone is entitled to be treated with dignity and respect, regardless of who they are or whom they love. Over the past decade, we've made remarkable progress on the journey toward full equality. LGBTQ people are now protected by a federal hate crimes law, no longer banned from serving in the military, and free to marry nationwide. But important work remains if we are to achieve equality for all Americans. Vice President Joe Biden has played a unique role throughout his years of public service, championing progress and prosperity for all. The Biden Foundation will build on that work, continuing Joe's fight for equality that began in the civil rights era and extends to his leadership on LGBTQ equality today. STRENGTHENING THE MIDDLE CLASS Joe Biden believes in the American middle class. To him, the middle class is not only the economic engine of America, but its also the glue that holds the social fabric of this nation together. Hes fought his whole CAREER TO GIVE PEOPLE IN ALL COMMUNITIES - LIKE THE ONES HE AND DR.BIDEN GREW UP IN - A FAIR SHOT AT ACHIEVING THEIR DREAMS. AND HE KNOWS THAT IF you give all Americans a fighting chance, they can do extraordinary things. Middle class families have made incredible progress, but theres more work to do. Thats why we launched the Biden Forum. The Biden Forum is an online conversation devoted to you: the American middle class and those working hard to get there. The Forum features diverse viewpoints from industry leaders, innovators, elected officials, and American workers from every corner. We are spotlighting local initiatives from communities across the country and providing a platform for everyday people to share their ideas.
