Kellogg W K Foundation Trust

The Kellogg W K Foundation Trust is a Michigan-incorporated trust that oversees the endowment supporting the W.K. Kellogg Foundation, which is among the largest philanthropic foundations in the world. The Trust is primarily responsible for asset management to fund the grant-making activities of the Foundation, which supports children, families, and communities. Based in Battle Creek, Michigan, the Trust channels investment returns to the Foundation and is crucial for its long-term financial stability. The Trust typically employs a lean staff; most program and administrative work is done through the Foundation. It was originally established to carry out the philanthropic wishes of breakfast cereal pioneer Will Keith Kellogg.
