Our History & Mission

The Dalton Foundation was established in 2011 by John and Lindsay Dalton. Originally founded as the Peter F. Dalton Foundation to honor a family legacy, the organization has since grown its mission to support a wider array of causes.

Today, The Dalton Foundation is proud to announce a significant expansion of its outreach. While we continue our long-standing scholarship programs, we have broadened our scope to direct 100% of our proceeds across four specific areas: Education, Veterans, Natural Disaster Relief, and Community Support.

"Giving back has always been at the heart of our company and family. With this expanded mission, we’re continuing to honor my father’s legacy while making an even broader impact—supporting education, helping veterans, aiding in times of crisis, and strengthening the communities where we live and work."

Our Commitment

We believe in direct impact. By partnering with established, high-integrity organizations, we ensure that our resources go exactly where they are needed most—whether that is putting a roof over a veteran’s head, putting food on a family’s table, or helping a student achieve their degree.
