Our logo with its stylized scales of justice integrates the vision, mission, and values of the Foundation in its design. The progressively bolder interlocked scales of justice illustrate our mission to over time proactively inspire and support innovative initiatives, working collaboratively with our grantees and stakeholders. The levelled coloured scales represent the culmination of our work and ultimate achievement of justice accessible for all.
