The Bergum Foundation helps underserved and underprivileged individuals and communities gain the skills, confidence, and opportunities to build brighter, more self-sufficient futures.
At The Bergum Foundation, we believe that every person deserves dignity, opportunity, and a fair chance—regardless of where they come from or the circumstances they were born into. Founded in 2010 by Ronald Bergum, our organization was born out of a deeply personal mission to uplift underserved children and families facing poverty both in the United States and abroad. What began as one individual’s act of compassion has grown into a community-driven nonprofit, raising more than $200,000 through the generosity of Ronald, his family, and close friends. Every dollar has gone directly toward delivering critical aid—from food, clothing, and shelter to educational tools and family support—helping individuals and families move toward stability and self-sufficiency. In a world where the cost of living continues to rise and inequality continues to widen, far too many families are forced to simply survive. The Bergum Foundation exists to bridge that gap—providing the resources, skills, and support needed to build brighter, more secure futures for those who need it most.
Empowering children and families to rise above poverty with dignity, opportunity, and hope.
With enthusiastic employees and volunteers, we are ready to support you no matter any time.
