About the Charles R. Wood Foundation
The Charles R. Wood Foundation was founded in 1978 with a mission to provide assistance to areas of special need in the Lake George Region and surrounding areas. Not-for-profit organizations with an emphasis on programs for children, healthcare, and the arts are the beneficiaries of Mr. Wood’s generosity. A board of trustees oversees the foundation with a goal to preserve the mission established by Charles R. Wood.
