"Future Vision of the Peter Kiewit Foundation"

The Peter Kiewit Foundation was established in 1979 by Peter Kiewit, a lifelong Omahan who grew a small family construction business into one of the largest employee-owned companies in the United States. Mr. Kiewit valued the work ethic of Nebraskans and wanted to return his wealth to their communities. Upon his death, he directed that his personal estate be used to establish an independent foundation to support public-purpose projects, primarily in Nebraska and the Omaha metro area.

Peter Kiewit Foundation (PKF) has honored his legacy by awarding over $540 million in
grants and over $40 million in scholarships since our founding. Investments are
inspired by Mr. Kiewit’s belief in the importance of hard work, individual opportunity
and building community.  

Join us on December 2 to hear more about the Foundation's vision and direction for the future.
