Welcome to the Frist Foundation
Established in 1982, The Frist Foundation is dedicated to sustaining and improving the quality of life in Nashville, Tennessee. As one of the larger foundations in Tennessee, it has been a philanthropic leader, serving as initiator, convener and catalyst among donors and nonprofit organizations.
Since 2001, much of the Foundation's funding has focused on the Frist Center for the Visual Arts. However, the Foundation in 2012 will continue to provide grants to support agencies serving vulnerable people, develop new sources of earned revenue, upgrade administrative technology, and recognize management excellence.
