The mission of the Roosa Fund is to respond to the needs of its home community of Block Island, Rhode Island by providing assistance to vulnerable people in our midst — including the poor, the young, and the elderly; and by protecting Block Island’s sensitive natural environment. We also extend our concern and care for vulnerable people to the poor in developing countries, particularly those impacted by natural disasters. Within these broad areas, the Roosa Fund prioritizes support for affordable housing and other basic human needs, local environmental improvement, education, and justice.
